It's from 1.00 to 4.00, and although this month we don't have a Teddy Bears' Picnic as a special event, there will still be a chance for suitably accompanied children to catch tadpoles from the newly installed dipping platform. They - and adults too - may be interested to see the young moorhens I saw down there yesterday evening.
I will also be there trying out surveying equipment - compasses, clinometers, tapes and GPS devices - ahead of our 30th August Open Day, when some geography sixthformers from Sydenham School will be helping conduct the first proper survey of the reserve, including the pond / Croydon canal remnant, looking also at plant species and soil samples. If anyone else wants to help this Saturday, come along and let me know.
