17th October 2024 we bus into Norwich, and out again. We’re headed to Broadland Country Park. We visited this woodland back in February, when all was bare, and mentally marked it for another visit later in the year. And so, step off the bus and we are here…

There are several paths through these woods (former pine and chestnut plantations). Which do we follow? To begin, we stay close to the edge

Despite the morning mist the sun does its best to shine through the trees. This early season it’s mostly the bracken that gives autumnal colour, though the trees’ leaves are yellowing

Clay soil doesn’t quickly dry and this summer has seen plentiful rain. So here we come to a seasonal rill amidst dark green trees

Into the pine plantation now. The mist is all but gone allowing the sunbeams to play

This woodland edges a common. And on the common sheep are grazing…

I think we must thank Nature and Weather for that. Though it is so welcome, especially as at the moment we’re covered in gloom!
