We were delighted to have two new/ish GoodGymers join us this evening for some moss clearing. Well done to Henryfor his first and Lukefor his second task!

A lighter evening but still a slightly chilly one. We scrubbed and brushed at the moss around the grounds at Cherry Trees. This helped to keep ourselves warm and the residents safe.

Thanks all and see you next time!

Three goodgymers met up in Castle Park to count bumblebees for the Bumblebee Conservation Trust's citizen science project. Bumblebees start emerging from hibernation around now, so we weren't expecting to see very much, especially as there isn't much in bloom yet, but much to our surprise, there were busy bumblebees in several sections of the route! We identified some queen buff-tailed bees, a few common carders, and even some worker white tails, which we will be recording on the BBCT website later. Congratulations to Luke on his first goodgym good deed, and for spotting so many bees. 🐝 🐝 🐝
