Friday 16th March 2012, a cold but dry day was spent in and around the arboretum with the following birds seen, Hawfinch, Firecrest, Crossbill, Brambling, Nuthatch, Jay, Siskin and the usual garden birds. A lovely peaceful place to be. Public toilets would be a welcome addition. Keep up the good work. B. G.

Wondedrful place to vist and so peaceful with no dogs allowed. Pity there are no toilet facilities. It would be helpful if the walks were marked with coloured posts.
