If you have any photographs of Gillfield Wood or its flora and fauna and you would like to share them, please email them to fogwsecretary@gmail.com or send them via our Facebook page. Please provide a short description, the date the photograph was taken and your contact details. 

 

Photographs to be considered for inclusion in this Photo Gallery or the Home page of this website should have been taken in our wood or the immediate surrounding area.

 

If you're not sure about identifying invertebrates there are lots of wonderful photos on our Derek's Nature Notes page that may be of help.
