Fungi Out Walking

Fungi Out Walking

All mushrooms are edible but some only once!

2023 has been a good year for walking and observing nature in the raw. As autumn approached the mushrooms and toadstools or fungi were out in force. This  provides you with new observation opportunities on your nature walks. This week I spotted this gigantic fungi over 2 feet in diameter growing in a local graveyard.

These photographs are from previous autumn walks. Even if I had found them in the garden it would not be a cause for concern as they are part of natures support for the environment and a wide range of other species.

Fungus comes in all colours, shapes and sizes with most under the soil. The largest living organism in the world is arguably a honey fungus growing   2.4 miles lomg and wide in the USA.
