superb!!
Thank you, Neil. It has been freezing at nights so the fungi season is almost at its end over here. I guess I'll have to do with the few species one can find year round :)
Nice spotting, Jae. I've been on the lookout here for fungi but, even after reasonable rain, it's still too dry. Find the odd bracket though.
