Spot Tina litterpicking at Adel Crag!
Our first event of the year, saw a surprise fall of snow overnight. Despite, quite a heavy and wet snow fall at 8.30 am, a great turn out of eight!
We split into two teams – litter pickers and path clearers. The litter pickers were Chris, Jen, Rob, Tina and Pippa.
The rest of us, Brian, James, Andrew and your correspondent removed a fallen tree from the path above the Stairfoot Lane carpark, and another from just above the cottage on Crag Lane.
No Christmas trees were harmed in the making of this picture
Having spent an hour in the fresh air, we returned to your correspondent’s house to continue the fun. Brian and Chris each took home three Christmas wreaths to dismantle for recycling for next December’s wreath making.
Andrew, Jen and your correspondent worked for an hour on cleaning and refurbishing eight nest boxes in readiness for next weekend’s surveying event – these were nest boxes which we took down from their trees last January because there were in need of repair.
All in all a very successful morning’s work.
