:D Now ye've gone 'n f***in said it, mate! :good: You just wait till I go to the far end of my trap line tomorrow! I pass a beautiful cluster of step type fungii, up a stump in a ditch!

Mheanwhile, here's one more I have left in my folder so far:






Haven't got a clue what it is. Probably something else I spotted on a dung heap?


Mheanwhile ..... Is this what I think it is??? :icon_eek: Far as I remember, right out there on my own 'stock field! NOT that I'd dare eat the f***kas any more! See me, tripping round the cottage with my more than capable Dogs feeling threatened by my antics! :whistle:

Attachment attachmentso what are these billy bunter ?


carra
definatly the porcelain fungus oudemansiella mucida
and they are edible
similar to the mycena which also grow on wood but are not slimy
and do not have a ring on the stem
most other fungi that grow directly on wood and have a stem ring
have coloured spores
im not an expert but have had a keen intrest for many years


Edible? my book says they are poisonous. :blink:

Here ye go, BB. Here's that step cluster in the ditch along the road from me:







Cries out to be between two slices of bread, doesn't it? :D

And here's one that sprung up, seemingly over night, on the back of my land here. If it's any help to ye, this monster's growing beneath some fir trees which I suspect to be Sitca Spruce. It's now almost the size of a big dinner plate. Tomorrow; The world!:



'Treacle Tart' Or What?!

the cluster in the ditch looks like fenugreek milkcap lactarius helvus not 100% as it has
started to decay and i wouldnt put it between two slices of bread because its mildly
poisonous

the other photo is root rot heterobasidion annosum a serius parasite of conifer trees
what can travel underground from tree to tree and is also found on old stumps

Aha! So it is Liberty Cap, eh? Well, that explains my donkeys behaviour! :rofl:

Oh! Looks like my fir trees may be f***ed then? Hey ho. More fire wood for me! :D Love 'Students one!

Incidentaly; Have ye noticed how some books say Liberty Caps are 'poisonous'? I think it's all down to personal definition of what 'being poisoned' is about ;)

Sorry to disapoint you bb, its called "Dryads Saddle" the photo in the website below isnt that good, but i looked in a friends book and it shows that it is.
It is edible but not very tasty from what they say on the sites below.
