Another mushroom that something has taken a chunk out of,

Again growing close to their invariable host, a birch tree. The mushroom in the lower picture has already provided a meal for some creature.

These two birds were on opposite sides of the island in the boating lake recently.

This one on the railing still seemed to be in exactly the same position when I went back a couple of hours later in the early afternoon.

More pictures I’ve dug out from my “consider” pile to break the preponderance of fungi at this time of year. This gatekeeper was feeding on thistle flowers in Sutton Park back in August.

The pictures are of an unidentified bolete species growing in the short grass of Coppice Lane, Tettenhall.

The two pictures directly above and below are different treatments of the same image. The first is given the settings I use on most images, the second treated as a HDR image.
