5 things you can spot at Box Moor Trust this autumn 🍁🍄

Autumn is settling in across the estate and if you know what to look for, it's one of the most
rewarding times of year to get outside.
Here are 5 things worth looking for on your next walk ��
🍄🍄‍🟫 Fungi: waxcaps, brackets, and puffballs appearing across the woodlands and meadows
🐦 Fieldfares and redwings: Scandinavian thrushes arriving for winter
🌰🌰Sweet chestnuts: especially around Station Moor, where historic trees have stood since
1902
🦋 Late-season butterflies: small tortoiseshells and red admirals still flying on warm days
💧Kingfishers: best spotted low over the River Bulbourne on quiet autumn mornings.
