On Wednesday 13th June 2012 the Scouts were invited by our very good Scouting friend Rob Mungovan to help plant some flowers along the edge of the river Shep at Fowlmere. Rob is the Ecology Officer for South Cambridgeshire District Council and along with Jess Hatchett, who is the Water for Wildlife Officer at the Cambridge Wildlife Trust, and Rob’s dad, Chris, the Scouts were shown where and how to plant the flowers. When all the planting was done Rob, Jess and Chris took the Scouts a little further along the river and helped them do some netting. You can see in the photos that they caught a whole host of river life from small lava to full grown small fish. We are very lucky to have such a good friend as Rob to help us with these kinds of activates and we send him, and his team, a very big Thank You.
