Great stuff. A good reminder that I need to get out into the countryside more.
Interesting to see the items left by the local gnomes - good to see they're keeping up with the times. |

hi folks,
heres a few interesting fruiting bodies i done recently seen. enjoy and lets see your finds please members........ impressive size-wise and very beautiful. growing on a stump - Ganoderma; Parasol Mushroom Macrolepiota procera; edible - and good. (as are the (more frequent) rhacodes - the Shaggy Parasol finally, take em or leave em these are probably (along with Fly Agaric and Giant Puffball) the most famous UK mushies, Liberty Caps or "magic mushrooms" Psilocybe semilanceata. pioneering Mycologist John Ramsbottom (1885-1974) devoted a whole chapter in his seminal 1953 work to a related species and their ritual usage; these specimens are slightly atypical. normally the "nipple" at the top of the cap is more pronounced. cheers, ben Edited by ben rigsby - 16 Sep 2011 at 6:35pm |
