Blushing boletes, Bantock Park

Like the birch boletes featured in a post yesterday, blushing boletes appear in autumn under birch trees. They look not dissimilar, the less common blushing bolete being a darker brown. Comparisons are helped when mushrooms of the two species are growing fairly near to one another, as was the case on the walk when these pictures were taken.
