We made it! First day of metrological Spring on #LindowCommon, #Wilmslow. A frosty start, but lots of sunshine.☀️
New growth is starting to emerge slowly around the Common, but give it another month and the place will start to look a lot greener... – at Wilmslow, England

The Cheshire East Council Countryside Ranger Service would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas & Happy New Year. All countryside sites will be open to visitors on Christmas Day but the car park at Astbury Mere Country Park will remain closed. Have a fantastic Christmas!
Winter Solstice on #LindowCommon, #Wilmslow. Winter officially upon us by all measures. Don't despair as from tomorrow on, days will start getting longer again...
Today is the start of meteorological Winter ❄️
A rather gloomy start to the season.
Only 3 months until Spring...😬

An uncommon visitor to Lindow Common. A Common Gull Larus canus. First time I've seen one here. ID by a local bird watcher, I'm useless at Gull ID in their first and second winter plummage

Excellent work @CECRangers. All those trees would just shade out the important heathers if allowed to get too big. Thanks.
Bollin Valley Partnership Rangers and volunteers and staff from the @MerseyRivers were working at Lindow Common SSSI, in Wilmslow, recently. As part of the ongoing heathland restoration and management they were removing the birch and willow seedlings from the heathland.
Awesome news!
Well done @CECRangers. Thanks for all your hard work over the years looking after #LindowCommon, #Wilmslow.
Also thanks to @WilmCleanTeam for the frequent litter picks and to all others who have cared for the Common.

Excellent talk from @joshual951 today at Martin Mere. Reminded me how lucky we are to have Round-leaved Sundews and Bog Asphodels on #LindowCommon.
Keep you your great work Josh! – at North West, England
About 25mins until the autumnal equinox (aka astronomical autumn). Approx equal length of daylight and darkness.☀️🌜
@CECRangers have already begun the autumn tidy up on #LindowCommon #Wilmslow by cutting back some of the vegetation on the banks of the Black Lake.

The grey gloom finally gave way to some end of day sunshine. More of that please before Winter... – at Macclesfield, England

Site highlight: Lindow Common SSSI, Wilmslow - bit.ly/2IajdJR. One of only a few small areas of lowland heath in Cheshire. As well as areas of heath, visitors can enjoy the other habitats, which add to the Common’s richness – a fringe of woodland, wet mires & Black Lake.

#wilmslow have you seen this shocking film? Every river polluted! @FotCarrs @LindowMoss @LindowCommon @profanthonyjon1 @WilmslowTC please sign for clean rivers and seas for us, for wildlife, for everyone
Thank you @GeorgeMonbiot& @rivercide_live for supporting our campaign & petition.
It’s more apparent than ever that the primary cause of the rivercide catalogued this evening is the chronic underfunding of env. agencies

Lots of colourful summer flowers on #LindowCommon, #Wilmslow at the moment - including fireweed, thistles and ragwart.
My favourite right now is Meadowsweet also known as Meadow Queen👑.
See it now in the Southwest corner of the Black Lake. – at Wilmslow, England
