Killynether Copse

It was fine and mild with sunny intervals today at Killynether Wood, near Newtownards in County Down.

We met at nine-thirty and continued with our coppicing project, which is progressing very satisfactorily indeed. There were about ten of us.

We spotted a raven hovering above, keeping an eye on us; and a buzzard, too. A song thrush welcomed us to the woods with a beautiful melody.

I have been out all day, nipping home for a pizza and apple crumble, before heading up for a swim; hence the lack of postings earlier!
