Mega Fern (14th March)

My first trip to Kennall Vale, an area of woodland which is a rare habitat for Cornwall, and also a nice setting for our penultimate conservation field trip for this term.  My group recorded about 90 species in total for the afternoon with the mega highlight being the very rare Tunbridge Filmy-fern!  The name might not mean much to you or I but it was indeed something to appreciate if not just for it's rarity status.
