Shall take an slr with a better zoom as compact was on limit of zoom. Although i am out there this saturday. i shall see if i can knock some out whilst on stop on the track.

 

good stuff matt, will be an important record of meripilus worth having in the meripilus thread if it is.

Matt,

1-6 : Hypholoma fasciculare = Flammulina velutipes (white spores)

11-13 : fungi/species growing on moss = lichen Peltigera canina

Matt,

Flammulina velutipes is a winter species with trehalose (anti-freeze) in its FB's to withstand frost. And frost doesn't change the colour of the spores.
