Making progress

Cutting a scallop to the ride side, and signs of the pollarded goat willow regenerating

Keep the coming Drifter …

You live the life most envy mate 

It's a lot of hard work and time, bit more strenuous than watching Ax men

Well, I've followed this for the last 3 years, mate.

Looks like you've  made some good, steady progress.  Well done, and as @bellsaid, keep them coming

If you leave some of the brash mate it will encourage good Fungi like Hedgehog mushrooms, Winter Chanterelle's, Chanterelles, Bay Boletes and Ceps. 

You're doing a cracking job. Atb.

Cheers Arry

Steady away, mate.  Looking good, you've made some cracking progress.

A few cold ones now, and a well deserved rest.

All the best with it.

There's Roe in here, saw a canny buck the other week early one morning, there's a few high seats still up from when this place was part of a shoot, one of the plot owners was saying he'd be doing some deer management, but I don't know if he has, one of the other owners was saying he wishes somebody would thin them out, there's a keepers place over the back, and there's always shots going off, but I don't know if anyone's bothering with the deer
