Hull's Wood

This morning rooms 9 and 10 spent a beautiful morning exploring Hull's Wood in Fish Creek Park. We were looking for signs of animals getting ready for winter. We noticed many things such as Rosehips, nests (one group found a Osprey nest!), wild life such as birds and deer, many different trees and the changing creek. We learned that Fish Creek Park is "Rewilding" parts of the creek. This means that they have blocked off sections of the water bank in hopes that the vegetation will re-grow in those areas. Human foot traffic has damaged the ground in those section so much that the land is starting to slide and become damages, chasing the shape of the creek. We saw some signs of animals getting ready for winter such as a burrow and even a bat hanging from the shelter. Thank you to the volunteers who joined us today!
