Invasive species patrol........


Last night I was having a check up on some of the invasives records we found last year. To my dismay, the few square metres that we found at Keltneyburn last year has now become several hundred square metres.....illustrating how quickly these species can spread. I found several other sources between here and Aberfeldy.......we definitely need to try and get a grip of this next year before it becomes a big problem that is too expensive to rectify. You can see white butterburr here in the foreground as well, another invasive species present in the Lyon catchment........

Plenty of butterburr on the road by Garth as well. Almost forming a hedge.
