A Close Shave

Our local Wildlife Trust has recently been encouraging us not to cut back shrubs and hedges during the current nesting season.

This, however, was the scene a while ago after the utility company cut back the hedge which borders our lane and their property.

Hard luck for any nesting birds there then.

    1. I agree. It is carnage. I think the utility company just outsources the hedge cutting to the cheapest quote and ultimately we get cowboys with no idea about wildlife and conservation.

  2. I hope someone pointed it out to the Wildlife Trust and they made a complaint!

    1. We did indeed. I'm not sure how much difference it will make though.
