I'm going to keep you in suspense until the end of the weekend in case anyone else wants to have a go. A multi pack of Curly Wurly's goes to anyone who can guess three or more correctly.

Blimey, if I knew there was a multi-pack of Curly-Wurly's at sake I'd have  held back with my answer and done a bit of proper research!!

Sorry Giles, I've been neglecting my duties.[emoji45]
 
Just been felling trees for the past little while so not too much to report. I also tend to post in splurges, I'm sure there'll be another one along soon.
 
2020 will be the year of ecological recording. We have got many different surveys planned to record birds, mammals, plants, insects and fungi. I'll be sure to post all the results up with plenty of detail about some of the more interesting finds.
 
Just as a little taster, here are some fungi fruiting bodies photos taken in the wood last autumn. See how many you can identify.
 

 

 

 

 

 
5 more to come once you've got all of these.

Calocera spp
Tough shanks of some sort
