@fosydneygardens Very impressed with the recent flower and shrub planting across Sydney Gardens ... and they all look as if they will do well in our drier summers. Would love to see some info boards with the various plant ID's. 👍

Lovely to see some Yellow Rattle and other wildflowers in the Alice Park space that was seeded last year. Hope it doesn't get mown too soon! @Bathscape @BathnesParks @aliceparkcafe @AliceParkCG

Happy birthday - it's one year since we announced #BathamptonMeadows as the first 'green corridor'.
We've surveyed soil, habitats, bats and fungi whilst getting to know the local community. Keep following to see what the next 12 months bring.

We @avonwt warmly welcome the @WestofEnglandCA proposal to work with regional stakeholders and the Unitary Authorities to develop a revised #Climate and #Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan. Check out the papers here: https://t.co/EsEpH5Pv7b & watch live on Youtube next Tuesday

@Aliceundo @nationaltrust @bathnes @growbatheaston Buffalos on the meadows !! Maybe some similarity to the AWT reserve with ponds and cattle grazing.

[Riverside Volunteers @fofbmr]

@Aliceundo Willow Dome haircut! ... could leave it until the winter and we would have enough rods to build an extension.

[Riverside Volunteers @fofbmr]

Looks like something spooked the Willow Dome ! Or maybe just a new hair style ... @Aliceundo

Seen a lot of Small Totrtoishell caterpillars on nettles this last 2 weeks which is good. But why do they always seem to favour the field nettles that are going to be flailed. We desperately need more undisturbed habitats. @growbatheaston @Aliceundo @Bathscape

[@GrowBatheaston @growbatheaston]

https://t.co/AA3dtSz1OV @growbatheaston is to bring together the community & provide better living standards for all the village. Sport & fitness is one area we would like to see thrive, Our junior football will be starting on 17July with help @geoffers79 @BCFCFoundation

An Orchid in the "no mow" long grass at Alice Park. Well done @BathnesParks @bathnes @aliceparkcafe @AliceParkCG Hope you can hold off the mowing until this and other flowers set seed.
