'Meet the Shape Shifters of High Wood'

We hope to re-schedule this and other Discoverers family events when the current crisis is over.

In the meantime, if you are in the Park for your daily exercise, you might like to keep an eye open for some of its stranger inhabitants.
 
Some trees never really die. They just turn into something else - animal or other forms.  As well as being fascinating, these mysterious tree creatures are also vital contributors to our Park’s biodiversity.

IMPORTANT - WHEN IN THE PARK
 Keep your distance from other people.
And from the deer who are about to start giving birth
STAY SAFE!
