This flower patch is by a path next to the river Severn in Bridgnorth, marking the site of the foundry where Richard Trevithick’s Locomotive Catch me who can was built.

Views of the Clee Hills from a mile or so east of the Severn.

This fungus formed a mound-like structure yards from the Albert Road entrance to West Park.

CORRECTION, August 2013. This is NOT a sulfur polypore, but rather the not very similar looking giant polypore.

I was stone cold sober when I made the misidentification.

Pictures of this year’s return of the fungus to be posted soon.

Compare the colour to that of the frog featuring a few days ago, whose picture was taken in almost the same spot.

A common sight in hedgerows in the early autumn, a wild arum with its distinctive bright red berries on the end of an erect stalk.

A large bracket fungus seen from below (top) and just about from above.
