Luckiest husband. Two rescue hounds. Mainly my own phone photos (some in focus) from dog walks.
They have pounced. And it’s a surprise attack, the two caps were hiding a third. Sneaky.

Anyone know if the little orange cups are related to the larger orange blob?

I’m not sure what either are, appreciate any #FungiFriends with ID skills.

Waxcaps on the windswept and rainy South Downs. Love the syrupy, candy colours.

Waxcaps, biding their time, waiting to pounce.

The musician Gordon Moakes remembers the late Gary "Mani" Mounfield, the bass player’s bass player whose delicate but propulsive anti-rock energy was The Stone Roses’ life and soul in microcosm

Hoping to find some cool weather #fungifriends up in NC this weekend. These are Yellow Patches Amanitas from one of the most mushroom-inundated walks I’ve ever taken, back in August. Happy #FungiFriday!

Waxcaps have a wonderful way of glowing even on grey days.

Hadn’t seen this before, the Silverleaf fungus.

I shared this photo a week or so ago on Mani’s birthday
- It never failed to bring a smile to my face - and that was exactly the same for the man himself.

One of the absolute best in every way - such a beautiful friend

Love you Mani x x

Bears too, have been visiting. I carved a petroglyph so the bears would take the trail away from my house.

This also looks like guttation. It’s on the famed Mid Sussex Slime Mould Stump™. Not sure which fungus.

Before following #FungiFriends I’d never heard of guttation so was quietly excited to see it in action (possibly).

I think that’s what’s happening with this Parasol. Looks like honey.
