Fungi around the House

......well, in the garden actually

These have been popping up at my gaff, at various times over the last three years.

Any one else have close encounters of the fungal kind, at home ?

Boletus (Xerocomus sp) in me front garden

Trametes versicolor, Turkey tail - on an Oak carving

Coprinus disseminatus, Fairy Inkcap - on me patio

& from today, Reticularia (Enteridium) lycoperdon, Slime mould - on hollow oak stump

.

try chipping the boarders each year, its amazing what pops up!

got some cups on the chip pile currently.

Reticularia

Spotted that the other day on old oak stump hadn't seen for a while.

Regarding wood chip did some clearance for the highways the other year and spread the wood chip, the following year sent back to strim and there were a fair number of bee orchids grown through the chip

The fungi on the duck makes it look like it has feathers Looks fab

Poor thing has lost it's plinth now, don't think it was the decay, probably too thin an attachment.

What a fantastic find! I'm not really an orchidophile, but I'm still envious. Great pics.
