The July Guardians work party cut back vegetation overhanging footpaths and the boardwalk. As a consequence, previously hidden bog pools have been opened up which are ideal for pond dipping. Scrub has been cleared and extra fencing erected at the eastern end of the boardwalk giving a new area for dipping in Kingfisher Creek.
Dorset Countryside staff have been busy keeping on top of invasive vegetation and garden exotics which are spreading on site. Herbicides are used carefully to kill only troublesome plants in favour of our rarer wild flowers.
The eagle-eyed amongst you may have noticed that the Nature Trail plaques have been changed. This gives the opportunity for new brass rubbings to be done at each location post along the trail.
