It’s strange that the Canadian Psych Prof thought the woman was depressed and irritable because she couldn’t yawn rather than because her husband kept punching her in side of head. Or more than likely this is the terrible medicine news reporting of this newspaper

The only Pine species I noticed was Pinus Sylvestris

First time I’ve found one. I was very excited

Dense tuft of orangey brown Flammulina fungi with lubricious caps fighting for position on fallen tree

Purple Jellydisc growing on rotten log

Stereum sp. Purple crust fungi with yellow edges on rotting log

The cold weather has changed the fruiting fungi. Flammulina, jelly’s and crusts taking over in Arrowe Park, Wirral #fungifriends #mushroommonday

Nice group of Hygrocybe sp. In North East Wales before the frost. Doesn’t look right for coccinea #fungifriends #mushroommonday

Earpick fungi growing on pinecone at Bidston Hill, Wirral. #fungifriends #mushroommonday

Ok, fair enough. How about ‘Unprofitable Basil’ instead?

Heath Groundsel, White Deadnettle, Wild Basil and Hedgerow Cranesbill in bloom this week #wildflowerhour

First one -Behind the Tesco in Heswell?

First time I’ve seen them. I’ve sent you a DM

Gliophorus sciophanous in a nature reserve NE Wales. Very slimy with some green showing in cap. A relative of the Parrot Waxcap. Not sure what the current thinking is on the taxonomy of this #fungi #fungifriends

Some little brown mushrooms in North Wales. Hodophilus sp. and Psilocybe Fimetaria #fungi

Autumn Gentian and Blue Fleabane flowering at a mild Minera Quarry, Wales. #wildflowerhour

Autumn Gentian flowering at Minera Quarry, Wales this weekend #wildflowerfinder

That’s interesting, I’m in Merseyside too. Other species seem to have fruited later here but in decent numbers when they got going

This year meadow waxcap seems much scarcer than usual in my locality. I would be interested if anyone else has noticed this?

I visited Bodnant for first time this summer. It was outstanding. Autumn visit now on the cards after seeing your pics

Pink waxcap

Scarlet waxcap

Crimson waxcap

Yellow foot waxcap

Recent Waxcap finds in the Wirral, Uk. These #fungi are so charismatic and exciting to come across #fungifriends

Glistening waxcap

Found a second site for Glistening waxcap (Gloioxanthomyces vitellinus) in Wirral churchyard. I usually find this tiny species in longer grass areas of acid uplands #fungifriends #fungi

Eagerly accepting permission to post grassland fungi for #wildflowerhour Hygrocybe Auratiosplendens- Orange waxcap, its cap shiny and Viscid. NE Wales

Arable weeds from the pumpkin field. Radish, Field pansy and 2 species of Fumitory. One with more glaucous leaves and smaller purple flowers ?Common and Common Ramping #wildflowerhour

Small orange squamulous Waxcaps growing in limestone quarry. I think these are H calciphilia, a new species for me, due to the growing conditions #mushroommonday #fungi #fungifriends

I feared someone was going to say the only Entoloma I can identify reliably in the field is part of a new species complex or something. Cheers for the info Lukas I will look it up

Light brown cap with neon greeny yellow stipe smelling of mouse cages

Lots of Mouse-pee Pinkgills in a disused Limestone quarry in North Wales. New species for me! #fungifriends #mushroommonday #fungi

That is lovely Sarah. Fantastic finds and pics

Burnet saxifrage, Milkwort, Common Rock rose and a nearly flowering Autumn Gentian showing a hint of purple. Found at Minera Quarry in North Wales #wildflowerhour
