Barry also found this large cluster of Coprinus mushrooms. The next photo shows a couple almost completely withered, but this stand is still largely intact though beginning to decay.

Mushroom
Barry found a number of interesting mushrooms this month at the Fletcher garden, including this large specimen.
Carbon balls (Daldinia)
Barry found these intriguing round fungi on a log. The next photo shows a larger cluster of them. Another name for them, from the UK, is King Alfred's Cakes.
