Fungi Sunday


Here are some photos taken on our walk with Monty on Sunday last.

If anyone can identify the fungi, please raise your hands!

These were like tiny orange antlers ...

I had thought that these clumps were Honey Fungus, but I am not sure, they were growing in pine forest ...




The Yew trees seem to be laden with berries this year, I hope that is not nature providing a little extra for another hard Winter ahead ...

Re: Fungi Sunday


I've always been interested in mushrooms, but my ID book is for US types. Those yews are really heavily berried! Bad sign???

Re: Fungi Sunday


The yellow ones are yellow stagshorn, the others could well be honey fungus.

Re: Fungi Sunday


I'd agree with the Yellow Stagshorn

Re: Fungi Sunday


Great shot at photo number 2!
There are a few mushrooms that look like No.2 onwards and I have never been able to differentiate between them, so I'll go with H.Fungus!
