[David Humphries]

Found this lovely puffball growing on top of a Yellow Meadow ant hill. I'm thinking along the lines of Calvatia excipuliformis.

 

Looks about right Matt

The Yew fungi needs a proper look at, dont think dyers, suspect chicken (conifericola) one and the same I had on larch.

 

and that parasitised laccaria is awesome

Wouldn't of thought so Adam.

Wrong location, the greasy is usually a cavity/wound sapro

Would this come under panic fruiting or just relocating? It is on a twin stemmed Ash and growing in the "pinch point". There is an old and deceased bracket that was growing off a tension root. The main target is a well used tarmac path as the majority of the weight is heading that way. There is no die back in the crown (yet) and the union despite it being tight is still sound. I will monitor the brackets (especially the bottom bracket) and see how quickly they grow.
