Sugar Fen 25.11.24
Ecologist Phil Parker introduced the task to volunteers, which was to cut back young Gorse near the drain that runs across the Fen. Cuttings were taken to form habitat piles within Birch woodland. Deciduous saplings growing in and along the drain were also cut down.. A fungus specific for Silver Birch, Crimped Gill, previously rare in Norfolk, and now quite common, was identified by Jenny our fungus expert. Neville, who led the work, thanked the volunteers for completing the clearance of gorse.
