Dropping and some feeding at Moss Field, behind Saddler's Walk estate.



Below, the excellent habitat that is Railwayman's Cottage.


I've left it too late this year to do a good survey of Moss Field or the Railwayman's Cottage, but at the former there were a few signs I managed to see among the incredibly dense vegetation, showing that the voles are still there. Then I popped up to the cottage and was thrilled to meet the new owners who are entirely pro-vole and wanted to know what they could do to improve habitat. It's such a relief to know that colony is in safe hands. Next spring I'll get in sooner, before the coverage gets too thick to move around in.
