Deciduous fringe of coniferous plantation.
Heavy showers. |
I can find no association between Sawfly larvae and fungi, so I suppose this specimen had fallen from some vegetation. I do notice, however, that the cap has been nibbled, and not by slugs. |
And this is the fungus in question: Helvella crispa - the White Helvella. I'm always intrigued by the complex structure of the stipe.

This appears to be a very young Coprinus comatus emerging from the centre of the path. Specimen about 3 cm. tall. |
This 'bendy tree' has always amused me. Most of the branches bend all the way to the ground. It's a Cypress of some kind, I think. |
A very autumnal shot of Leotia lubrica - Jelly Babies. Flash used. |
A late second push from the Selfheal. |
