 The sun finally decided to come out today. But it's still very chilly. Nevertheless, walking in Ladock Woods is very refreshing. Seen loads of amazing wildlife: Buzzard, Jay, Goldcrest, Great-spotted Woodpecker, Wood Pigeon, Chaffinch, Coal TIt, Robin, Long-tailed Tit, Dunnock, Wren, Song Trush, Magpie, Rooks, Grey Squirrel, a few Fungi and a lot more... Had an enjoyable walk in the mud in Ladock Woods. The smell of the pine woods is just sooo relaxing. Very soothing. If I only I can save the scent in a bottle. Some of the lovely fungi we saw today. Frosty and icy!   The first event of Ladock Parish Wildlife Group has been a huge success. There was a great turn-out. Parishioners from Ladock, Grampound Road, Trenowth and others attended the event. Thank you to everyone who came this evening. It was lovely to see you. I'm organising a whole lot of amazing events for 2020. Hope you could all join us again on our next event. Thank you Carol Clarke , Nichola Sherriff and Vivien Stals for your help. It's much appreciated.
