| Aim: |
Our group visits Buxton heath most Saturdays throughout the year. Winter sees us mostly doing scrub clearance to protect the rare heathland and wetland wildlife found on the site, with the occasional other task such as fence maintenance or pond digging. During the summer we concentrate on surveying the wildlife on the reserve. |
