WEATHER: Sunny with showers then heavy rain
Edible (if you're brave) Amanitas were found today, especially
in the established spruce/ moss area. Blushers
and Tawny Grissettes do tend to be one of
the earliest of the main season fungi. A brownish Russula was also found. The usual carpet of Marasmius could be seen as well as on dead
wood yellow fungus, Galerina
mutabilis and Calocera cornea. The
first Bay bolete of the year was found. Stinkhorns were quite common. Grassland area
has grown up near the central pond area, where cotton grass is
now growing.
Moving under the electricity pylons, Elder was in flower. Small tan coloured fungi were found around here.
The birch area was tentatively explored, earthballs making an appearance in the usual area. The area all the way down to the railway was explored and Valerian was found next to the bridge over the river Ore.
