New Images: Snelsmore Common

I have been a bit lazy with the blog posts over the last few weeks, so here are a few photos of Snelsmore Common I took before the autumn really kicked off.

Snelsmore Common Country Park is a couple of miles north of Newbury in Berkshire. An important Lowland Heath habitat made up of heather, gorse, wet bog and small trees (mainly Silver Birch and Oak). It is also home to deer, small mammals, snakes, lizards and birds including ground nesting Nightjars.
