Neat, but boring

Neat, but boring

This has been a pet hate of mine since we moved down here three years ago.

The grassy banks and surroundings of the railway "property" (the WSR lease the land) are mown on a regular basis - usually twice a week - with the result that you see. Neat but oh so boring. Occasionally (e.g. in inclement weather) it gets left and suddenly we get wild flower gardens that attract all sorts of wildlife and look really nice. Then the Axemen cut it down again.

You decide what you would like - pretty flowers and lots of wildlife or Astroturf. But if you want the latter then please don't talk to me.
