High deforestation.
Dull with occasional showers. |
Here's a late specimen of Yorkshire Fog. Most other specimens have been dry and white for some months. |
Most Alder leaves have fallen, now. But this tree is showing next year's buds and a fairly new leaf at the same time.
|
I'm not exactly sure what this is. I suspect its a slime mould that starts off as a small brown ball and then produces the spherical orange fruit bodies. Image size about 2 cm. tall.
Lycogala spp - a Slime Mould. |
This Peltigera lactucifolia (a lichen) has developed its orange fruit bodies. I took a sample and we'll see if I can get any spores. |
Two more lichens on Willow. I think maybe a Parmelia and a Ramelina.
|
Finally, the seedheads of what must be Upright Hedge Parsley. The heads were about 4cm. across, and this is roughly (to within a few metres) where I saw the plant earlier in the year. |
