"Nature is so full and varied that if you want to find the place with the most variety, it is the place you most study. Just take in a small piece of land and examine it hard enough." Gilbert White... Long Road, a few miles from Selborne where the pioneering 18th century naturalist lived and documented the flora and fauna of his area. Long Road is our patch, the place to watch the time and seasons come and go, to listen, think and learn

Warm October
It has been an unusually warm October, walking along Long Road in a t-shirt seems a little odd. Apart from a few yellowing leaves on the Oaks, only the ferns on the side of the railway appear to be indicating signs of Autumn colors, turning brown and withering.
Whilst fumbling with my camera last week, I had a chance to chat to Martin Ward, a keen amateur photographer. I told him about this blog and he has taken some shots of Long Road as he sees it. Here are a few of his images, they really capture the warmth of the past few days I think. Click here to see all of Martin's Long Road Album
