Newbury area

hey people,

im new on here and wondering if anyone in the newbury area has a good knowledge of trees, shrubs, grasses and fungi? as my knowledge basically sucks alot more then i thought it did

or if people are interested maybe organise a group "ramble" and have a collective knowledge?

cheers.

No expert by any means, but quite up for a bimble with a book if you fancy it?

Anyone else from West Berkshire fancy a meet?

thats what i planned to do, bring a few books along and anything i cant name look it up and maybe cross reference it with someone elses book.

i think snelsmoore common would be a good place to take wonder?

I'm down the road in Tadley and we have a few areas down here that are good for trees and plants, Pamber forest, owned by the Hampshire wildlife trust, no fires but happy for me to use fallen wood.
Also have quite a few areas part of the Englefield estate with different terrain. Bit late for the fungi but happy to go for a stroll around these woods and have someone tell me more about the trees I am seeing, although I'm not too bad at identifying some
