A different coloured patch
A couple of years ago John Fernihaugh and Richard Lindner tried to plant some wild flower seeds on a small patch of the Green. They were limited in how much preparation to the soil that they could do and their spreading of the seed mix was followed by a very dry spell of weather. The birds, rooks and jackdaws in particular, spent much of their time pecking away to see what they could find.
The Green is home to many, many wild flowers but one little area is now showing one result of their experiment as many white daisies have appeared. It seems that the birds didn't eat everything.
