This is the final part of the series relating to my fungi
and bird watching outings after the mini heat wave that we experienced around
the beginning of the month.(it seems a long time ago now!)
So, here are some more fungi images (please feel free to
click away if they are not your thing) and as usual the ID's are not 100%
certain, please correct me if I'm wrong!
|
Aromatic Pinkgill |
|
Greasy Green Brittlegill |
|
Grey Spotted Amanita |
|
Peppery Bolette |
|
Pestle Puffball |
|
Powdery Brittlegill |
|
Sepia Webcap |
|
Shaggy Inkcap or Lawyer's Wig |
|
Spiny Puffball |
|
Tawney Grisette |
|
Yellow Stagshorn |
|
Help needed for an ID on this one! |
And to finish are two images of a Slime Mould (enteridium
lycoperdon). These images were taken ten days apart and you can see in the
second image where the outer covering is
breaking down to reveal, and ultimately release, the spores from inside.
Sorry for the fungi overload but I thought it best to get them out of the system in one go instead of spreading the boredom over a couple of posts!

Wow, a great collection of fungi, that is one of the best. You could write a book on it, illustrated.
A superb set........I know the unidentified one as Brain fungus......It could be Beech Jelly Disc Neobulgaria pura.
The Stags Horn is a beauty.
Superb images Trevor, good for any text book.
Superb pictures as always Trevor,
Definitely the fungi King!
Can't help on the ID one, but it looks like a brain to me.
Thanks Bob, don't know about the book though!....[;o)
Adrian, thank you.
Not sure about the ID, my books all have the Beech Jelly Disc looking more 'see through' and jelly like!...[;o)
Thanks Roy. I think the 'text' part of the book would be the problem!...[;o)
Cheers Keith. It's definitely hurting my brain trying to find an ID....lol...[;o)
So do mine look jelly like but they don't feel like jelly in real life.....I posted a Tiered Tooth fungus on Wildaboutbritain. That's what someone said it was.
They are the very devil to identify. Apparently Brain Fungi are usually yellow. I've only seen white.
Adrian, this one's really bugging me , so much so I'm just off to see if it's still there and maybe after a closer study things will be a little clearer!...I'll let you know...[;o)
Grace, I'm sorry but in my stupidity (age and stage!) I hit the wrong button and deleted your comment.
From what I can remember you were feeling a little under the weather, I hope you feel better soon. There was also a mention of tripe? Some people will tell you that I've been uttering total tripe for ages...lol...[;o)
Wonderful images. I have only seen Earthballs and Birch Polypore in numbers this year.
Das sind Raphael und Yvonne said...
You have found really a lot of different fungi!
very interesting!
Greetings from Switzerland
Yvonne and Raphael
Thanks Andrew. Yeh, I think it's been a poor year for fungi in general this year (certainly around this area)I think it's down to the dry weather we've been experiencing...[;o)
Gruetzi Wohl Yvonne and Raphael, thank you for stopping by and for your kind comments. I'm glad you found it interesting! . Please visit again soon...[;o)
