Thanks to all who came to help at The Pinfold this morning. We had a good number of volunteers, some old, some new who worked really hard. We cleared the invasive geranium, trimmed and tidied the hedge, weeded the path and painted the shed, all in a couple of hours. Fantastic work from everyone and a great social occasion too with tea and cake. And the sun shone!

Thanks to a generous donation from the Cononley B**r Festival organisers, we now have permanent metal ‘Ground Nesting Birds’ signs which are in place around Cononley Ings, at the top of Netherghyll Lane and up at the Lead Mine. We had the support of the Lengthsman, David Loos, to site and erect the signs, jointly financed by the Cononley Parish Council and Councillor Andy Brown.

Curlews, lapwings and other ground-nesting birds are now breeding in all the places where you see signs. These birds are endangered and it is important that we all do our best to protect them, so please keep your dogs on a lead and stick to the footpaths to avoid disturbance during the nesting season (March to the end of July). Enjoy your walks and listen to the wonderful call of the Curlews along the riverbank and on the moor.

Thank you to everyone who has supported Cononley Wildlife Group in this project.
