What to see in September
With September, the long summer the evenings start to draw in, misty mornings return and dew can be found out in the fields and on our cars. The weather can still be fine and there’s still much to see and glory at out in our open spaces, so read on the discover what you might find…
The annual rut is about to start and the stags can be found bellowing out their presence in our two larger Royal Parks, Richmond and Bushy.
Its not only the fields and cars that find themselves covered in dew, our wildlife too.
Butterflies can still be found on the wing, even into October.
September can be a good time to spot our native spiders, as their tell tale webs get covered in dew, and not just in our parks, our front gardens too.
Groups of Starlings can be found almost anywhere, especially at the end of the day, when they are getting ready to roost for the night.
Besides Butterflies, some other insects are still on the wing.
This is the time of the year when seeds and fruit, large and small, can be found everywhere, and timed perfectly for the natural world to gorge on to help them through the leaner months of winter.
Even as they die off, plants can look good, whether on the common or in our gardens.
So take a moment to get out and about and enjoy our great open spaces.
