Large Oak that is called a "stag horn" oak because of its shape.

Looking through young birches at an old oak.
The several hundred oaks that are over 500 years old, were left because they were not suitable as timber for ships in the 1700s & 1800s.
Most of them have heartwood that was damaged. That's why they were left.
Me next to the Great Oak. The tree is 800 to 1,000 years old.
They think the Great Oak may have been pollarded as a younger tree, which would explain its shape.
Lots of wildflowers in the open areas. (Sherwood has been a managed forest since William the Conqueror, so it was never a dense forest.)
Ox showing that the ferns are over 6 feet tall.
The fences are only around the ancient trees. They protect the roots from too many tourists packing down the soil around them.
We kept seeing signs and slogans through the trail about hedgehogs.
One of the conservationists brought a 14 day old orphaned hedgehog to the special hedgehog weekend.
