We found some tree-climbing molluscs this morning.
And are these evidence of other, more welcome, small creatures living in the park?

Wednesday Gardening Session: 5 August, 10-11.30
Lots to do and a decent weather forecast so please come along if you can.
Celebrating the Green Flag
We had a very pleasant wine and cheese evening on the 30th July to celebrate getting the Green Flag and Stan’s 84th birthday. It was sunny but unseasonably cool, so pretty good for July 2015. Over 40 people braved the chill and we all celebrated excellently, especially Stan!
Stan and his cake!

Saturday Gardening Session, 1 August, 10-11.30
There’s a gardening session on Saturday, usual time, 10-11.30. There’s plenty to do, as always. Please come along if you can.
Sunshine and only a little rain
A stunning morning in the park, at least by this week’s standards, saw us weed and trim flower border edges. And we found time to celebrate Stan’s 84th birthday! The place is looking great for tomorrow’s wine and cheese celebration.
Wednesday Gardening Session: 29 July, 10-11.30
The Wednesday gardening session at the park is on, usual time. The forecast even says it’s going to be sunny!
Green Flag Celebration: Starbank Park, 27th July, 7.30-9.30
There’s a member’s wine and cheese evening at the park to celebrate the Green Flag at 7.30 on Thursday, 27th July. Members only, but you can join on the night!
Saturday Gardening Session, 25th July, 10-11.30
After all the excitement of the Green Flag, we have a Saturday Gardening Session from 10.00-11.30. There’s still lots to do, of course, and the weather forecast is fine, if not seasonably warm!
Tidying for Tomorrow
A good turn-out and a busy morning! We cleared loads of grass clippings and hedge clippings (thanks for cutting the hedge, Julie) and even found time for some weeding too. Oh! I nearly forgot, some coffee and cakes. The park is looking great!
Overtime at the Park
We did a bit extra tidying in the park this morning before Thursday’s Keep Scotland Beautiful announcements. The flower borders are looking really good. The summer bedding is full of colour, the fernery is well-established and new herbaceous borders are flourishing.
We saw one of our resident frogs, a butterfly or two and some busy bees.
