I think this is the last of the 'autumn fruits' postings. In the section of Filnore Woods which we call 'The Old Plantation' there are a number of non-native trees planted 30 years ago by Northavon District Council. Some of these trees are apples - more or less crabby.
Once on the ground they are merrily munched by creatures from squirrels to wasps and from slugs to fallow deer.
If you have an apple tree at home, leave some of the windfalls for blackbirds and thrushes, to see them through the colder months. You may even get some of our winter visiting thrushes, fieldfares and redwings.
