Love the journey through Uk nature.
Stumped by these, only growing on Oak leaves and all in a similar condition, thought maybe Badhamia ultricularis.

New forest Poronia punctata, these grow in the same area each year. Ponies eat grass which contains the spores, poop it out and so on, considered a rare fungi and an indicator of clean healthy environment. These are about life size.

Regretfully (for the sake of the authors and journal staff), I have this morning declined an invitation to review for a @royalsociety.org journal because of the Society’s continued refusal to stand up for its values in dealing with Elon Musk FRS.

Shame on them 😡
Amendment 40 to the Planning and Infrastructure Bill has been voted down.

Had it passed, it would have meant more precious wildlife would have retained existing protections.

Instead, MPs have bought into the false 'nature vs growth' narrative.
