Sunday 8th October 2006.
Fungus Foray Herringfleet Hills.
This is was a new site for the club having finally moved away from the Dunwich area. 14 members attended in very warm sunny weather, in fact conditions could not have been better. But Because of the dry season it was going to be a poor time for Fungi but nevertheless we made some good finds, which were identified 7 recorded during lunch. A copy of this list has also been sent to the Broads Authority who manage the site.

I have always fancied a Fungi Day out but the local ones always happen on a working day for me!
