Borrowdale, Ash and Holly. The overall tree canopy colour in Borrowdale is still green. The birches and alders are going but not that much else. The bracken is well underway however and conspires to make things look autumnal even with the amount of green. #lakedistrict #leofoto #woodlandtrust

Today’s parenting spotlight lands on the Pied Flycatcher. 🌳
Males and females take turns zipping insects to their fledglings hidden high in the trees.
The young birds will linger in the treetops for a week or so, before dispersing into the wider woodland.
