February 2012

 There are not many fungi to be found over winter but there are a few about. In foxhole I found a great display of Trametes versicolor/Turkeytail..

Living off dead birch wood was a large  Piptoporus betulinus/Birch Polypore..

Still in the same place off Kilvey Road was Geastrum triplex/Collared earthstar. The fruit bodies of this fungi is very resilient.
