Streams of Wool
If you go down to the brook today, you’re sure of a big surprise!
The Trent Rivers Trust and local groups are decorating your local brooks with crafty woollen decorations to attract people to visit and enjoy their brooks, and to learn a bit more about the wildlife there.
The photo above provides a map of the location where the decorations will be displayed

Wildlife Photography Talk
River Mease River Wardens were treated to an illustrated talk on wildlife by local photographer Mat Bingham who showed some of the camera trap footage he has taken on the River Mease. He also talked about a future project to photograph the otters on the river in infra-red. If you would like to see more of Mat’s work, take a look at http://www.talesfromtheriver.co.uk
