Saturday 25 May 2013: A little bit moor!

13-05-25-P1040397A corking Bank Holiday Saturday and an enthusiastic group of Friends met on Buckstone Road to litterpick and work on Adel Moor.

In the event only Mary litterpicked but single handedly garnered three bags of litter.

Meanwhile, a dozen of us worked on Adel Moor.  It was a beautiful day and we removed large numbers of saplings and coppiced roots.

Steve Joul was working on the moor with a group on Tuesday and saw three lizards. Today was a perfect day for spotting lizards basking in the sun but the only sighting was by your correspondent (honest) as one scampered into a clump of heather.

Hi-de-hi!
