I was responding to a put down.

Regarding the request to maintain links, I'm afraid I do not approve of the T&C of the web site, and hence I have no interest. Anyway I do not use the A-Z.

All the more reason not to go round diss'ing the worthwhile efforts of those who do give a damn

To get the thread back on course , lucky me.



Well i'm hopeing lucky me and someone will agree with
Volvariella bombycina up a tree.



Had to remove coat, bag and any clutter to be able to climb adjacen trunk then reach out
for a poor single handed image of cap, without camera i could get enough grip to look into
knot hole and see the bag round stem, i could have pulled it out but that seemed unkind
and now realise i had seen this earlier in the year poking out from a less accesible knot
hole on opposite side, so hopefully by leaving it more will appear when i will call cybershot
with his selection of lenses to get better images. (well if he's interested)


Cheers J.P.

Great find JP; may well be worth a trip over tomorrow?? Do I recognize that stump?

woops just caught up with this (there's me putting out pointless emails)

I don't think you've seen this dead betula but my memory isn't all it could be.

See dung thread for Castle bottom update shortly.

Cheers J.P.

What an amazing find JP. Glad it was you shinning up the tree to retrieve today

There was a V. bombycina growing a site a couple miles from me last year - I may nip there and have a quick look in the day or so. Was out with the fungus group yesterday and saw a few interesting things.

Good luck Mark. I'll be checking on my site at Clumber too. It has appeared regularly for the past 3 years.
