The other indicator that I liked was: 'when oak leaves are the size of a squirrels ear'. |

I just had to try my first taste of morel and I wasn't dissapointed. |

Sounds like you've got the situ' covered Lone Forager. I think I found Bleach Cup today actually. I've uploaded an image of something similar, but I think it's an Otidea or a Peziza rather than Disciotis. What do you think? 
Anyway, I looked everywhere I could today. Found some very 'Morelly' ground, but still nothing. To think I envisaged a thread saying 'Nick's Morchella Elata II'
Silly moi

Nick | I think this may be the Palamino Cup - Peziza repanda Nick. Still, it's a nice find
Dare I post some more morels ... from site number 3  | | | |
