Tis the season to see Fungi, fa la la la la....

[ABtrees]

I've been for a wander this afternoon - got about 25 pics mainly of buttery brown fungi on tree stems and roots - all look a bit similar to my untraines eye.  I can upload a few if anyone is interested ????

But the one i would like an ID on is this one please.  It really looked pale blue.  About 2 inches across.

Stropharia caerulea.

I am not going to pretend I knew it, just visited googletown.

Hi 42.  It is actually on an old dead Oak about 6 inches off the ground - poor photo.  No need to revise your notes !

 

Ah, that makes more sense. Thank you. I thought perhaps it was growing from a shallow section of root.

That looks eerie. Fitting for this time of year.

Thanks Mick - that looks to be bang on.
