31st January 2022 - (Monday, Hétfő)
My first visit of the year ... on the last day of January. This was just quick visit following a weekend of almost hurricane-force winds. The Quarry seemed to have survived, although most of the dead Greater Reedmace stems had been demolished in Rock Bath 1. I cannot say whether it was due to the wind, large mammals marching through them, or adventurous humans. Some thick ice was in RB1, and I hope that our Yellow Flag Iris will survive the cold. A few small patches of snow remained on sheltered pathways, but they were outnumbered by the many patches of deer droppings! The only sign of life was a male Blackbird as it moved through the bare bushes.
