Recently, when I was searching online trying to identify an unusual tree, I found a website which I thought was worth recommending. It’s the Hainault Forest website at www.hainaultforest.co.uk Of course, much of the content is specific to Hainault Forest and the surrounding area but it also contains a lot of general information and excellent photos on a wide range of natural history subjects. For instance the flora section includes not only has photos of seasonal flowers but also autumn fruits and even trees buds in winter. The fauna section is as wide-ranging, with sections on water birds, dragonflies, aquatic mini-beasts and spiders among others. The Nature Detective section includes identifying leaves, bones, animal tracks and feathers. There’s much more that I won’t list here but all in all it’s well worth a look.
