Loggers


The tree-haters have been out playing with their new toys after Christmas. The invitation to local people to come and join in the destruction didn't bring many volunteers. Why this part of the site was targeted God knows. These were mature birch, not on the heathland that conservationists are so obsessed with. and the pleasant copse which is now much reduced was a favoured place giving some welcome variety on a round walk. The birch was also helping to shade out the bracken.

But if you complain they become all emotional and threaten you with the police!! Somewhere in all this there's a situation comedy waiting to be written.
