Bushy Park: the last days of summer - a photo on Flickriver

            Here in Bushy Park, Teddington, we’re enjoying the last few days of summer as the season changes to autumn. It’s bright and beautiful… but it’s also 4°C.

Bushy Park is my local park, which I use several times a week. For years now, I’ve described it as the gem in Teddington's crown. It covers 445 hectares (1,100 acres) and is the second largest of London's Royal Parks. 

Very near Hampton Court Palace, the park is home to some 300 free-roaming red and fallow deer. Within the park are woods, gardens, ponds and extensive grassland, as well as a formal baroque water garden. It hosts an array of wildlife: the deer of course, plus sandpipers, herons, three species of woodpecker, warblers, finches, tits, redwing thrushes, frogs, toads, newts, foxes and goodness know what else that goes about its life unseen. 

In addition, local rugby and cricket clubs are based here, Commonwealth and Olympic runners train here, cyclists ride here, and horses are exercised here. My great fortune is that I live less than five minutes walk from this genuinely wonderful – and free to use – facility, and I wouldn’t be without it for the world.
