Beltany Circle, on the conference excursion.

 

Scattered showers.

Kevin Barton and Mary Harte explaining the geophysics and role of the Beltany Stone Circle.

Meanwhile....

The stones are always good for lichens, and this north-facing surface had this excellent specimen of Marchandiomyces, a fungus which is parasitic on Parmelia.

    

Area in second image about 1 cm.across.

And a new (to me) fungal rust on Groundsel on the approach path. Puccinia lagenophorae.
