Hungerford Wildlife: August 2009
http://hungerfordwildlife.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Wildlife of Freeman's Marsh and other land owned by the Trustees of the Town and Manor of Hungerford. Friday, 21 August 2009. Common Ragwort is a biennial plant of grassland. Basal leaves only develop the year it germinates, with flowering in the second year (after which it dies). It establishes where the ground is disturbed. It is considered poisonous to livestock, but grazing animals avoid eating it unless it is accidentally harvested with hay (then they cannot see it). The advice I have given is based...

Transition Norwich Blog: October 2012
http://transitionnorwich.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 30 October 2012. Low Carbon Cookbook - Cold Comfort Food. It began last week. Not just the dip in the temperature, the closing in of night, the leaves turning gold and tawny in the lanes and the proliferation of mushrooms, but the unexpected appearance of those underground veg on the table. Although there were still cosmos and California poppy flowering in the gardens, winter had put his bony leafless hand on the pot and suddenly we were all thinking Roots. Factory-made food can never do. Ho...

A continuation of my walking descriptions and photos. Previous blogs are listed on this blog in link form. Wednesday, 29 August 2012. This one is just outside Monyash village. It leads to a row of chocolate box cottages on the outskirts. As you can see, growth is now at full stretch. The only problem with this is that shorts and nettles don’t mix (as Sue and I found out several times today). Pretty cottages and cottage gardens. These ‘peak and northern’ footpath signs are just fab! We came across this &#...

Ragwort hysteria: April 2014

UK Blog documenting the hysteria about this ecologically valuable plant. Tuesday, 8 April 2014. Chorleywood Parish Council's Ragwort Error. A good illustration of the rampant misinformation about which I blog was given by Chorleywood Parish Council with this tweet. Ragwort poses a serious risk to horses, our Rangers and volunteers remove it from the Common each year, depending on the growing season. The problem is quite simple. Ragwort does not. For details see this blog posting Ragwort they made it up.
