Albert arranged with the farmer for us to look round the ponds at Grange Farm, Ash, and where the habitat was good we soon found water vole signs. Better than that, we actually had four sightings! It was great to meet these women from Shropshire Wildlife Trust too, and to share the vole-love.
Loved the video and good news about the new colony too. I am getting very excited about doing my course this fri :-)
ReplyDeleteWe can't wait to hear what you find out about the underwater latrines...! It would also be interesting to know more about water voles sometimes straying from their veggie diet (wonder if there is any photographic evidence of them actually in the act?!)
