Nice to see the progress of the local hedgelayers on the commute to work.

A few pics of recent work. Well maintained Hazel Coppice yields loads of material for habitat management/heritage crafts/environmental education.

Over the last two evenings we have ringed over 100 Swallows at roost. We also had the amazing surprise of a Hoopoe, an uncommon visitor from Europe. The Swallow ringed elsewhere, 3 Sand Martins and a Yellow Wagtail were somewhat overshadowed!

July is always a quiet month so I’m happy that this load of faggots went out for rivermending/wetlands habitat restoration.

Well managed Hazel Coppice is a habitat in its own right and also provides material for managing/restoring wetlands and rivers as habitat.

A quick video to illustrate the wood in spring after it’s been coppiced and all wood and brash has been removed to allow maximum regeneration.
