Our mission Owl Box Installation🦉 & Maintenance Of Existing Boxes (St John's Lye) Woking.
It was another Biodiversity task, so for me (Luan) I jumped into action this Saturday morning; our mission was sooo interesting and cool!
Meeting with first Wayne and then Kirsty (two of my most favourite positive and encouraging members) in the carpark everyone was in good spirits! Working with members of WEAct we had 3 Owl Boxes to replace and 1 that in the end was just inspected and maintained (loads of foliage was removed from it). Using our map of St John's Lye, see picture attached the boxes were placed strategically around the area.
The boxes were already made for us to put up, but we had to add or nail in a perch onto them first, the biggest challenge finding the right tree and then, it was a man's kind of job to drill the boxes into the trees up ladders. The girls helped by carrying kit around the location and clearing all nails from older boxes that could then be left to biodegrade.
So much fun!
Thanks Everyone :-)
