Fallen tree in Sherwood Forest Country Park
Fallen tree in Sherwood Forest Country Park
Because of its national ecological importance the Country Park was designated a National Nature Reserve in 2002 by Natural England, the Government agency responsible for safeguarding our natural environment. It is home to hundreds of insect species and fallen timber is left on the forest floor to provide feeding and breeding grounds for these, not least of which are over two hundred species of spiders. Note the bracket fungus, Fomes fomentarius commonly known as Tinder Fungus or Hoof Fungus, growing on this trunk.
