Blackshaw Head 20-09-13

A few pictures of some of the fungi Michael and found on our walk through the fields at Blackshaw Head.


Golden Waxcap (Hygrocybe chlorophana) -Michael's photo above and mine below.

We estimate that there must have been hundreds of specimens of Dung Roundhead (Stropharia semiglobata) scattered around the fields growing on lots of cow dung, but we didn't stop and count! My photo above and Michael's below.
