Shall we catch up on ? 🍁
Autumn colour is appearing gradually, and with the days getting shorter and cooler, more leaves are changing from summer's green to deep oranges, yellows and browns 🍂
The best colours of the season are yet to come, so keep an eye on your local woodland and record the colours you see on your next visit 👉 forestryeng.land/autumn-leaf-watch

The first signs of the season are beginning to appear across the forest, with leaves starting to turn from vibrant greens to stunning shades of gold, amber and red.

This morning's sunshine provided the perfect backdrop, casting a warm glow across the viaduct and highlighting the beautiful autumn colours as they begin to emerge. Early mornings like this remind us why Kielder is such a special place to explore at this time of year.

Have you spotted any autumn colour changes on your walks yet? 🍁☀️
