The hawthorns now have substantial new growth, and the wild roses are almost in leaf. I also noticed what I think is broom in the north eastern hedge, green of sprig and bud.
Back to the Land Use Strategy: "As part of our stewardship it will be important to keep records of the changing wildlife in order to demonstrate and evaluate the effectiveness of our plans." We need to establish "monitoring and recording methods for data collection". Absolutely, and observations now will give us a baseline for future changes and we hope improvements. But I suspect I would be too unreliable an observer to meet Anthony's exacting standards. Might that, then, make me an unreliable narrator within this blog?
Between September 2010 and September 2011, I lived alongside an Anglican Benedictine community of monks and nuns. In November 2010, we moved from Broad Marston Manor near Evesham to Mucknell Abbey, a new eco-monastery near Worcester. This blog was about things that I observed and things that interested me. I have now stopped writing it. Thank you to all who were also interested.
isnt every blog an "unreliable narration" though?
