4th October we head to Lound Lake. We’ve skirted it on previous visits to the area. This time we’re to walk through the nature reserve. What will we see? But first we’ve a 2 mile walk from the bus stop to get there, at first by country lane…

Although called a lake it is one of the Broads, now repurposed as a reservoir

The reserve includes grassy upland, fantastic for butterfly hunters…

And tree-shaded walks…

And around a second lake the pine trees grow. For me, this tree is iconic

I featured the second part of this walk earlier this year, so I’m going to leave this here. Ah, I mentioned fungi: See Tuesday Treats.
Hope you enjoyed. More next week.

The Scots Pine is found, possibly as a native tree, but only in the Brecklands close to Suffolk border

Isn’t it interesting to see what trees have been brought over, which are native. We get so that we think they are all native 😉

Apart from the hedgerow *trees*, if they’re turning early, we can almost guarantee they’re not native.
