So sympathise with this👇. I never understand why people go to the trouble of picking up dog poo in a bag (good) to only then hang it on a tree or chuck at the entrance of one of our Nature Reserves (very bad).

I spent a little time this weekend looking at woodlands near me, to help Sheffield & Rotherham Wildlife Trust identify the smaller ancient woodland that was missed in 1980s surveys

I found cliffs I'd not seen before, a possible charcoal platform, Wood Forget-me-not, and the occasional veteran tree 🙂
