Wolves Wild

Blewits in a patch of grass. One had been kicked over, so it was possible to see not only the colour of the top of the cap, but also the underside with the gills.

A revisit to a front garden where a tree stump has regular plums and custard fungi growing from it in the autumn.  The purple (plum) colour of the cap now reduced to a few traces, with the underlying yellow predominating.

A small slug was making quite a success of eating away the cap of a mushroom which was barely peeping up through the grass of a mossy lawn.

One of the smaller and more delicate-looking group of inkcap mushrooms, pleated inkcaps can be inconspicuous even in the short grass of loawns or sports fields where they can quite often be found.

A cluster of buttercap mushrooms. For once, the name gives a hint to what the species looks like.

Ugly milkcaps, a species which grows in association with birch trees. I’m not sure why it should be particularly singled out as ugly – it gets the same epithet in its Linnean name.
