The nest boxes have been inspected for use/replacement/repairs. Of the 36 installed boxes, 21 had been occupied for nesting, 13 were unused, 1 is missing/removed and one was not inspected. Any repairs and replacements are planned to be carried out before the next breeding season. At the same time of the inspection, squares of white paper were placed on the floors of most boxes so any deposits will confirm birds are using them for overnight roosting. Two camera boxes on the fence line of Hazelwood/Hazel Drive are both occupies each night by Blue Tits.
Woodland management along the edge of Hazelwood continues. Dealing with the branches and logs remains the biggest challenge. Why not join us for the CHRISTMAS WORK PARTY on 29th DECEMBER 11am-3pm to help out?
Leaflet dispensers have been fixed to the notice boards at the Redwood Drive and West Moors Road entrances. Within the dispenser there is a VISITORS BOOK for the recording of wildlife sightings and comments. Dog waste bags are also available.
