| | | New Kid on the Block. Hi ALL.
Just want to say HELLO. I just joined. This looks like a cool website.
I've recently got very keen on Birdwatching (thanks to a Kestrel I saw a few weeks ago and a brilliant book by one Simon Barnes called 'How to be a Bad Birdwatcher'), Treewatching (is that a word?) and Fungi. Spent two hours in my local woods today with the Digital Camera leafing through litter and probing the undergrowth. It's true what they say, though: the more you look, the more you see.
But I'm a total novice, really, to the world of Fungi. I was initially drawn to it when reading about some Fungi and the uttlerly bizarre names many of them have, such as Deceiver and Destroying Angel. I saw maybe six types of Fungi today so am going to upload the pics to my PC and have an identity parade and see which of the suspects can be pinned down.
Looking forward to spending time on this site.
Kind Regards.

If you're interested in Fungi you might want to take a look at the Gallery of the Fungi-club on dA. Great photos of some weird, wonderful and very beautiful stuff there.
