More from the Fungal Foray to Baronscourt, NI.

 

Bright with showers.

This small (3cm.) bracket was on dead Spruce bark. Looks like Postia caesia.

    

 

A bad shot of Clitocybe dealbata: small but deadly. This was growing about 1m. away from Clitopilus prunulus - the Miller - and it took a sharp eye to separate them. I ate the Millers for dinner: excellent.

 

And this shot of Chanterelles shows how dry it was.

 

An unknown Coprinus. I always find these very photogenic.

 

The pink fungus looks like one of the parasitic Marchandiomyces. These live on lichens.

 

At first this looked to be one of the Pezizas, but on turning it over it had a short pale stipe, so maybe something like Helvella acetabulum.

Old stumps and dead branches are always worth a visit. This is Trametes versicolour - the Turkey Tail.

 

And the final fungus, an Earthball: Scleroderma citrinum.
