Barrow Moor

Bolderwood Deer Sanctuary - without any deer Bolderwood Deer Sanctuary in the New Forest was notably free of any signs of Cervidae on our visit. Perhaps we were just unlucky. The main 'viewing area' is a field with a viewing platform nearer to the road than the wood-fringed field seen in this photo. The species which may be seen here are: Red Deer (Cervus elaphus) Roe Deer (Capreolus capreolus) Fallow Deer (Dama dama) Sika (Cervus nippon) and occasionally Muntjac (Muntiacus reevesi)

Barrow Moor is a picturesque woodland area located in Hampshire, England. Covering an expansive area of land, it is known for its dense forest and natural beauty. The moor is situated on the outskirts of the village of Barrow, providing a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of city life.

The woodland is predominantly composed of a mixture of deciduous and coniferous trees, creating a diverse and vibrant landscape. Tall oak, beech, and birch trees dominate the area, interspersed with the occasional spruce and pine. This mix of tree species provides a rich habitat for a variety of wildlife.

Barrow Moor is home to a wide range of flora and fauna. The forest floor is carpeted with ferns, mosses, and wildflowers, creating a vibrant and colorful undergrowth. Squirrels, rabbits, and various species of birds can often be spotted among the trees, making it a popular destination for nature enthusiasts and birdwatchers.

The moor offers several walking trails and footpaths, allowing visitors to explore the natural beauty of the area. These paths meander through the forest, offering glimpses of small streams and ponds along the way. Visitors can enjoy a peaceful stroll, taking in the fresh air and the soothing sounds of nature.

Barrow Moor is a haven for those seeking solace in nature. Its serene environment and stunning scenery make it a popular destination for outdoor activities such as hiking, picnicking, and photography.

Cep (Boletus edulis) A young Cep (Boletus edulis) in Anderwood Inclosure. This is perhaps the most prized of edible fungi and as a result is often the subject of heavy exploitation. Because of this I have chosen to give only the 4 fig grid reference for this particular example.

Oyster Mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) A cluster of Oyster Mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus) in Anderwood Inclosure. This particular example was growing on a Silver Birch trunk, rather than the more usual Beech.

Fly Agaric (Amanita muscaria) A group of three Fly Agarics (Amanita muscaria) growing on a bank alongside a track in Anderwood Inclosure. The white specks on the cap's surface are the remains of the veil that covers the emergent fruiting body. For a close up of the nearest of the three, see <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/7313586">SU2505 : Fly Agaric (Amanita muscaria)</a>.

Brown Birch Bolete (Leccinum scabrum) A group of Brown Birch Boletes (Leccinum scabrum) in Anderwood Inclosure. As expected from its English name, they were found growing under a Silver Birch tree.

Stinkhorn (Phallus impudicus) A Stinkhorn (Phallus impudicus) growing among leaves in Anderwood Inclosure. Both the English and Latin names are very apt. The former refers to the strong smell it gives out to attract flies which then transfer the spores elsewhere, and the latter, translated as "shameless phallus", needs no further explanation.
