My first sighting of devil's fingers, Clathrus archeri, on our local common. I did a weird squeaking noise when I realised what it was. #fungi
Five bright red tapered 'fingers' of a fungus in long, wet grass, trees in the background shrouded in the mist.

It doesn’t look much but I’ve been wanting to find it for a while - Beechmast Candlesnuff (Xylaria carpophila). Not rare, but very small and only found on old beechmast 😎 #fungi

Two striking yellow-orange mushrooms grow side by side beneath a tree, surrounded by a thick carpet of brown pine needles and scattered pine cones. Their broad, rounded caps are covered with numerous pale, raised patches, while their sturdy cream-colored stems widen toward the base. The larger mushroom towers over the smaller one, creating a dramatic contrast in size
