These two photos show what happens to an arable field that was sold off in lots as a redevelopment scam 20+ years ago. It's now a good mixture of Hawthorn, Ash, Oak and Field Maple although some of the Ash saplings have succumbed to Ash dieback, others look OK, no regimented planting needed. /1

DUCKS: by this time of spring most ducks will have settled at potential breeding sites. So all records of scarce & rare breeding ducks, including Shoveler, Wigeon, Garganey, Pintail, Pochard and Red-breasted Merganser, should be submitted, with breeding evidence, to the relevant county recorder
