A selection of fungi from a mercifully wet New Forest this week 😁🌧️ See ALT text for more. #fungi #Newforest

This honey fungus (Armillaria mellea) is everywhere in the New Forest at the moment - but I like the way these photos show the black rhizomorphs (or ‘bootlaces’) used by the fungus to colonise new substrates and transport nutrients. #fungi #NewForest

⏱️ Timekeeper needed this Saturday! ⏱️
One role we’d especially love to fill this week is Timekeeper. It’s easy to learn, full training is provided, and you get a front-row seat at the finish line! 💚

I wasn’t looking for Holly Parachute (Marasmius hudsonii) today, it just popped into my eye line - always welcome though, and look at that tiny one !! #fungi #NewForest 5/10/26

Another one just up the road. I got seriously wet after taking this 😂

Just up the road from me - not usually flooded but was in March 2013!

Walk at Blackwater in the #NewForest today. Good to see Fox, Fallow Deer, Siskins, Sparrowhawk and hear Coal Tits and Great Spotted Woodpecker.

Enjoyed a walk from the marina around Normandy Marsh with views toward the Isle of Wight, followed by a wander around lovely Lymington 😊
