For me autumn is the season of falling leaves and fungi, such as this rather impressive example of a shaggy inkcap which I came across today in Pollok Park on the Southside of Glasgow.

Excavations suggest it dates from between 2,000 and 2,500 years ago and probably functioned as a defensive structure which once surrounded a small group of round houses.

This might not look like much, but it's the remains of an Iron Age enclosure in Pollok Country Park in Glasgow (spaniel included for scale).
