Opis
Calke Abbey is a historic estate in Derbyshire. You can explore acres of historic parkland. A third of the historic Calke Abbey Estate is recognised as a National Nature Reserve and Site of Special Scientific Interest. This ancient wood pasture and its historic avenues are home to over 650 veteran trees, more than half of which are considered ancient. Many of the trees in the park are thought to be over 400 years old. These ancient trees are a mix of species, such as limes, field maples, ash, beech and chestnuts, as well as oak. The ‘Old Man of Calke’ is perhaps the most well-known ancient veteran tree with an estimated 1,200 years old.
The grasslands, bushes, old trees, ponds and lakes attract a variety of birds. Birds you can observe include perkoz dwuczuby, perkozek, mandarynka, dzięcioł duży, dzięcioł zielony, kowalik, zimorodek, krogulec, raniuszek zwyczajny, jer, dzwoniec, pliszka górska and paszkot.
