Autumn colours: Chat clump and Tettenhall ridge

Autumn: Chat clump and Tettenhall ridge

Subtle autumn colours in this view from the Smestow Valley LNR’s Barley Field.

To the fore, the patch of scrub and shrub in the middle of the Barley Field, known to the Smestow Valley Birders as Chat Clump.

Behind, the trees lining the Railway Walk and growing up Tettenhall Ridge. The evergreens still have their leaves, and some of the broad-leafed trees have tinges of colour as next year’s buds and catkins are already developing.
