Today was hot (23 degrees C) and sunny again, and very humid. So it made our maintenance work-party hard work. Mike, Sue, Alan, Catherine and Kim spent a couple of hours trimming back bramble shoots around the trees, cutting back the longer grass on the top of The Mound and weeding around some of the smaller trees. We were careful not to disturb nesting birds, or even dormice, in the brambles.

Mike had also cut around the spiral pathway, so we could get access as the grass has grown quickly since its last cut in Spring. We kept cool with some iced water and finished up with tea and a lovely cake.

The air was full of buzzing bees and we saw a handful of butterflies around the grass.
