Today on a bright, sunny day, 6 goodgymers helped Friends of Brislington Brook with coppicing Sycamore trees that are taking over the woods at Nightingale Valley. It's a lovely location and a satisfying task which we liked especially as you couldn't go wrong!

Richard was enjoying sawing down the larger trees whereas the rest of us easily lopped the smaller ones with great success! I thought we might lose Dave up in the midst of the woods but we found him again, phew!

We brought more light to the woods and hopefully this will encourage more growth from other trees and plants.

A hour later we posed for a group photo and half of us shot off for our next task, thanks for having us FoBB it's always a pleasure to help.
