Wolves Wild

Views looking east from the ridge of the Malvern Hills to the flatter landscape of the west midlands, and west over the Marches to the wilder hills of Wales.

Light green “cups”, spore-shedding structures, of a lichen rising like miniature towers through the darker green leaves of a moss high on the Malvern Hills.

Views looking along the ridge of the Malvern Hills, looking southwards on a blustery morning with cloud occasionally brushing the tops of the hills. The massive prehistoric hill fort of British Camp on the top of Herefordshire Beacon is showing in the distance in some of the pictures.

Leaves of a bush growing by the lake in West Park, with autumn colour change direct from a glossy green to bright red.

Wood blewits, a favourite with fungi foragers. Tbese were in a front garden by one of the main roads into Wolverhampton, possibly brought their by the wood mulch they were growing on.

Pennywort plant: the largest of the leaves are roughly the size of a pre-decimalisation penny.
