Wolves Wild

This fungus looks like a congealed foam on rotting wood, including, as here, on tree stumps.

This closer view also shows tiny puffballs nearby.

This flock were systematically going over the patch of ground which was very soft after recent rainfall.

This delicately coloured mushroom grows in leaf litter – here at the roadside by the Million, a Forestry Commission wood near Kinver.

This tiny mushroom was growing from a tree trunk.

Holly has bright red berries as winter comes, and deep green leaves all year long. It’s easy to see why it should be taken as a mid-winter decoration symbolising continuing life.

The stem is hard to see, hidden even in this short grass.

The cap is covered in a what looks like a made to measure yellow hairnet.

CORRECTION: identified by Lukas Large as probably a honey fungus
