Three Cemetery Wanders

 Three walks around the cemetery and woodland burial ground. It always amazes me that neary as soon as I turn down the approach drive towards the cemetery gates the traffic noise from Scartho Road diminshes and once in the cemetery is gone completely. A few weeks ago I chatted to two people carrying out a tree survey and looking for and marking diseased trees. These are now being removed and on week days it is busy with the sound of chainsaws rather than traffic. It is a quiet time in the cemetery for birds and most other wildlife. There are a few fungi about, however, and next year's hazel catkins and flowers are already formed and growing.
