Always ready to move on and explore for more food, they certainly keep very busy.
My friends Dave Denby, Dave Sutton and I decided to return to Millers Wood Nature Reserve Sussex, almost a year from our last visit.
This time the weather was light rain and overcast but it did not dampen our spirits as there was plenty of wildlife to photograph.
The name Jatropha is derived from the Greek words for doctor (jatros) and food (trophe). Podagrica means “swollen foot,” fitting for this swollen succulent-looking plant.
It features a swollen “trunk” that is topped with several large fig-shaped leaves. Besides the swollen stem, it produces bright red flowers throughout the year.

In the brief time I observed this Acorn Woodpecker, he excavated cavities in two different trees into which he stuffed acorns for safe keeping. Near the water treatment facility at Big Bend National Park, Brewster County, Texas.

Had a day in the snaizeholme hide with my brother. As always lots of lovely cheeky red squirrels darting about. Didn't get the two shots I wanted, my reactions far too slow!
Nicely aligned with the Christmas theme, this is a view from a granite outcrop called Nut Crackers. A quick google search tells me that the name came from a large boulder balanced on top of the granite outcrop (check historic photo: www.torsofdartmoor.co.uk/images/tors/main/418_1.jpg). Sadly it got thrown down at some point. Last Sunday, we spent some windy hours on Dartmoor, taking in a few tors along the way and the Nut Crackers was the first one. It was sadly also the only one still in sunlight. For the rest of the walk, low clouds moved in and turned the landscape into a misty and nippy winter scenery.
Just to keep everyone on their toes, NOT a pink photo LOL
I love our Native trees and I should know the name of this one but I don't remember it and even if I did I don't know if it would be correct.
I am actually more used to seeing the gum nuts more in clusters, not hanging down in long strings.
I can almost imagine the gum nut babies climbing up and down and having great fun!! I can see why May Gibbs had so much inspiration from the trees.
Truly need to be seen in the larger sizes
I am a nut , and i did fall
From a tree that rises tall
I fell one day, upon the breeze
Onto the wall, that divides the trees
I am a nut, hard and green
I was born up high, but now i'm seen
Alone, on the stone of ancient grey
That travels long, and leads the way
Through the woods, where trees rise tall
Where i, the king of nuts did fall

This red squirrel was stood assessing me and it determined that I was not likely to get the hazelnut from it. On that basis it stood a while and let me take the picture.
