A front garden with a tree stump, with mushrooms growing on the stump. I’d previously passed the stump a fortnight earlier, and already taken pictures of the fungi.

Showing over the high garden wall of a house on one of the quiet streets at the back of Tettenhall’s Upper Green, an extreme colour contrast in autumn leaves.
The white spindles in this set which appear to be growing out of bare earth were in West Park. The others, white and yellow were growing together on the same lawn, which was also the lawn with the brown birch bolete (recent post).

Colours of autumn – crow up high, West Park
A carrion crow up at the top of a tree in West Park. Its high vantage point would have given it a view over most of the park.

Autumn fungi flush – birch bolete (brown)
Lots of mushrooms are associated with trees. Some are not very particular about which kind of tree, while others occur only near one type of tree. Brown birch boletes are one such. The clue to the tree is in the name, which also gives an accurate description of the colour.
The reds and yellows of this liquidambar by the lake in West Park did look a bit like those of a particularly vivid flame, especially when reflected in the low waves on the surface of the water.
