In autumn, most of our summer visitors (such as the blackcap) leave our shores for warmer climates. This year has been been particularly hard for #migratorybirds due to #decreasinginsectnumbers which are a vital food source for many birds. #WorldMigratoryBirdDay

This autumn please enjoy fungi responsibly. Watch where you step (you could be trampling something) and remember foraging is strictly prohibited at Burnham Beeches and Stoke Common. #noforaging #nofungipicking #mitigation #countrysidemanagement #burnhambeeches #stokecommon

When planning a visit to #BurnhamBeeches, please be aware that Public Spaces Protection Orders ( #PSPO ) are in place for the whole of the #NationalNatureReserve and there is a designated area which requires dogs to be on leads. Thank you.

Please be aware that feeding or petting our #cows and #ponies will result in them losing their natural ability to find food. We want the #livestock to live as naturally as possible while on the #NationalNatureReserve so we ask that visitors enjoy them from at least 5 meters away.

A huge thank you to our amazing volunteers led by Bal Kalsi and Josh from @CoLBBSC who joined forces last Friday at Salt Hill Park! Together, we collected a whopping 24 bags. Every piece picked up is a win for our community and the environment.

It's #WorldLizardDay! The common lizard, Zootoca vivipara, found at Burnham Beeches & Stoke Common, can shed its tail to escape predators. The tail regrows but usually shorter than the original. This is a protected species so please do not disturb them & stick to the main paths.
