| | | Weird Fungi needing ID
Saw this strange looking fungi at the back of where I work and I would be most impressed if someone could ID it for me. It stands around 30mm tall if that's any help 
Thanks, Tornado.

I have often seen these in N.Ireland. They are very light and have the feel of very dry polystyrene. I think they are the remains of a a puffball. |

He is the brains behind it all, I just give morsels of info and take photos.
I don't mind you borrowing the idea at all, I hope it inspires more to have a go as it's nice to see what's going on around the country in other peoples gardens.
Hope it goes well for you.
Regards
Tornado
