SUMMARY:Autumn Birds with Nick Patel
DESCRIPTION:Autumn is a time of movement and change in the bird world. Migrants arrive from the north to spend the winter here\, while summer visitors begin their journeys south. Hedgerows are alive with activity as birds feast on the season’s berries\, and grasslands and wetlands provide vital feeding grounds for both resident and passing species. \nJoin expert wildlife guide Nick Patel for a guided walk through the evolving habitats of Heal Somerset\, focusing on the rich and dynamic world of autumn birdlife. During this relaxed walk\, Nick will help you identify birds by sight and sound\, offering insights into plumage changes\, migration patterns\, and the different behaviours you are likely to observe at this time of year. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced birder\, you’ll come away with fresh skills and a deeper understanding of how birds adapt to the turning season. \nYou’ll also have the chance to learn more about how rewilding at Heal Somerset is creating safe havens for birdlife\, and how these habitats support biodiversity through the colder months. \nWhat you might see: redwing\, spotted flycatcher\, long tailed tit\, bullfinch\, stonechat\, blackcap\, goldcrest\, meadow pipit\, yellow wagtail\, green sandpiper\, snipe\, lapwing. \nAbout your guide\, Nick Patel: \nNick is a tour guide\, conservationist\, naturalist and birder and is passionate about helping to protect\, create and maintain British wildlife. A lifelong Birdwatcher\, and former Nature reserve Warden\, Nick has devoted his life to shouting about how amazing our native biodiversity is and just why we should care for it. Autumn migration is a particular passion of his\, and one of his favourite times of year to be out birding. \nNick says “Having led tours here at Heal Somerset for two years now\, I’ve witnessed first-hand the speed at which nature has already made a comeback. I’m super passionate about showing everyone who visits the site the wealth of wildlife bouncing back\, including some really beautiful species and fabulous rewilding habitats.”

Slow Sundays at 42 Acres Retreat are all about connection – with yourself\, with others\, and with nature.\nWild swimming\, a wood-fired sauna\, woodland walks\, and incredible food grown on the land itself – all shared around a long table in the woods\, with birdsong overhead and an eclectic mix of people from all walks of life. It’s a really well-thought-out setup. Simple\, but intentional. The team were welcoming\, knowledgeable (beavers\, storks\, permaculture\, mushroom farms\, soil-to-gut) and clearly passionate about what they’re building. This was their first Slow Sunday- here’s to many more!’\nLynda\, Slow Sunday Guest\, June 2025. \n‘A group of 6 of us attended 42Acres Slow Sunday and we all throughly enjoyed ourselves. The land is beautiful\, with lots of lovely quiet trails to walk and soak it all up. We even spotted storks\, buzzards and believe we may have accidentally bumped into a wild boar too. The setting for lunch is fabulous. Really cosy atmosphere and delicious food. Some of us even jumped in the lake for a quick swim which was really refreshing.’\nLucy\, Slow Sunday Guest\, August 2025 \n‘Beautiful experience of reconnection to people\, place and soul.’\nSara\, Slow Sunday Guest\, August 2025. \nPlease Note:\n– Must be booked in advance.
