This is a great time of year to be walking in woodland. Here are some lovely autumn colours from Anderton Country Park the other day.

oak

birch

beech

spindle

rowan

white poplar

• Oak and birch are quite subdued compared to the vibrant beech.
• Spindle and rowan give vibrant splashes of red.
• White poplar gives contrast – as the white underside of its leaves becomes prominent.
