On Thursday I spend 30 minutes walking along the path in Northcliffe Woods<\/a> next to the Dyke, there and back again. Lots of wet Bracket Fungi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The header image is the underside of a Blushing Bracket, Daedaleopsis confragosa. You can see the topside in the photos below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As usual you can tap\/touch\/click on an image to see it in better quality in the carousel gallery with an i<\/em> for more information. And if you like what you see please click on one or more of the Share <\/em>buttons at the bottom.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Bracket Fungi<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I think all these fungi can be classed as Bracket Fungi, even the Oyster Mushroom. It is a gilled bracket, with gills on its underside, where the others have pores or are smooth. The Smoky Bracket, Turkeytail and Birch Polypore have circular pores. The Hairy Curtain Crust is smooth and the Blushing Bracket has slit-like pores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All the fungi look a bit soggy because it was raining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Track<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The squiggles show where I wandered taking the photos. A quick there and back again from Cliffe Wood Ave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
