Brandon Country Park Fungi – April 2023

Some fungi highlights from our walk.

Another first for us Thelephora terrestris ( Earthfan )…

We spotted these in the sandy, grassy verges of the paths adjacent stands of conifers.

The next two photos, an unknown crust fungi with wonderful underside tube structure…

Internal branch structure revealed…

Following our discovery of Black Morels – Morchella elata – at the allotment — more excitement when we found a large array of False Morels – Gyromitra esculenta in a large grassy clearing adjacent a conifer stand…

And this wonderful Auriscalpium vulgare – Earpick Fungus…

Could this curious form be a misformed puffball…?

Some Peziza emerging from under a branch…

Near the carpark a hollow in a Beech tree…
