This cold/whatever has me obliterated but I got my client hours in from bed and decided to get on with a job at Warleigh Nature Reserve to warm my lungs up.
No before and after, but here’s a mid way through fixing up the drainage ditch on a vehicle track from a spring. Flowing nicely now!

I did Spreydon Domain and Glynne Reserve yesterday, Cashmere Stream Reserve today. Only Heathcote headwaters (the drainage reserves of wigram and aidenfield), Ngā Puna Wai, and the very final stretch of Ferrymead to the bridge and I will have walked every accessible part of the Ōpawaho Heathcote!

Seen a few here so far, there’s a rebuilt sand martin wall at a nature reserve relatively close. But the rail bridge is unmanaged and gives better views

Make it a riparian reserve. Take it off the market, swallow the loss and learn from it. Return it to the ducks and the neighbourhood as a park. The City of Kamloops doesn’t need to be a sleazy developer!

Bitterns were native at Otmoor in the 19th century, but drainage after WW2 and conversion to arable greatly reduced the wetland extent. The RSPB acquired the reserve in 1997, after the threat of the M40 was seen off, and have re-established it as a thriving habitat. www.flickr.com/photos/antho...

Just curious, are these owls in a protected area (like a reserve) or have taken over a human created space. Years ago was monitoring burrowing owls in a field of drainage pipes left behind by a previous owner. They just loved the site.

The nature reserve in question has a wetland woodland on it. I want to know how the invertebrates coped there when we had the drought last year. Mind, it's also connected to the Severn via a drainage canal, so that probably helps maintain a bit of water there. 🌍
Field trip to a nature reserve today:
Prof: the problem is, when the canal dries up larvae that have been growing for years die
Me: the canal is a man made feature right?
Prof: yes
Me: so we can just run the taps and keep it from drying out
Humans are ecosystem engineers and need to git gud 🌍
