Disturbing finding the a great habitat in the patch in this condition, not sure if this was intentionally or not. Hopefully not and will have a chance to grow back and flourish.

Monday, 28th July: Sunshine and cloud, but remaining dry in a pleasantly bright sort of day with a light to moderate W/NW breeze.
