Had a really good day today at Stephen Park, Gisburn Forest. THE BOWLAND EXPERIENCE TRAMPER TRAINING. The training will enable us to use the tramper from "home" should we have suitable routes to follow. It will also allow us to plan routes for our guests. It's an excellent way for people who may find it difficult to get out and see what our AONB has to offer. It can be used by anyone with limited mobility be it long or short term, young or old and I have to say it can be fun and is highly recommended. Being a member of Bowland Experience means that we are able to book the tramper for use by our guests. Can't wait for someone to use it from here!

Height Top Farm
Today has been very spring like even for Height Top! I have seen all of these birds in the garden and feeding from the table today. Siskins, Goldfinches, Blue tits, Starlings and Chaffinch. We have been repairing the boundary fence this afternoon and disturbed a cock pheasant. We also saw two curlews. Not too bad to say that we weren't really looking.

This mule sheep was our first to lamb this year. Hopefully she'll show the texel how it's done!
