Mallards swimming line abreast on the algae-covered water of the main pool at Pendeford Mill on a misty autumn morning.

Clusters of tiny purple berries on a beautyberry (callicarpa) bush in West Park.

Orange magnolia berries emerging from the black of their protective coating, spotted on a tree growing in a front garden.

Small mushrooms which were growing in a roadside grassy verge, a white coating on the fungus’ caps looking like frosting sprinkled on the top of a sponge cake.

Ok, a duck diving not the same as a diving duck. Drake mallard diving near the edge of the Severn at Bridgnorth.

The rims of the caps of these mushrooms have the characteristic tooted shape which marks them as russulas. Taken about a week apart in the same place, so these might be the same species.
