The Bluebells are at their peak at the moment, soon to be gone for another year.
This is the scene from our nest box yesterday. Mum and Dad are busy feeding 9 Blue Tit chicks that hatched over the weekend. The live feed goes to a TV in our field studies lab where groups base themselves for our stream study.
The forest sheep have been regular visitors outside the Centre through the Spring, grazing on the grass in the village.
Steam trains are also again regular visitors to the village with their seasonal timetable in operation several days a week.
The end of an era...we recently wished Lyn a happy retirement after 27 years working at the Centre as a cleaner! Lyn was our longest serving member of staff and we gave her a good send off with a surprise staff gathering where we presented her with a long service award and retirement gifts.
We have also been busy over the last few months doing some bathroom refurbishment. Below is one of two showers on the first floor that have been given a new look with fresh tiles and fittings and are now operational
