More Fungus ID
Hi,
Please can someone help to identify the fungi shown in 2 attached photos that a friend has sent me.
The only suggestion I can make is some kind of Honey Fungus for the one on the tree stump.
Regards
Steve
Hi JCL,
The Willows were showing around the ash tree next to the pond. They would often be perched on the bare branches of the ash tree as well as nearby reeds. They were best viewed from the side or back of the pond near the ash tree.

However, I did have a close...
I had a fairly disappointing and windswept day as well. At least I wasn't the only one :t:
Think I am going to head for the Cley area tomorrow.

Cow Tower
There were still 2 Willow Emeralds showing in the autumn sunshine today at Cow Tower Pond.
Unfortunately, I cannot get to the coast until the weekend to see the influx of avian delights. A calling flock of Redwing overhead was some consolation though.

Great photos and thanks for your views on the identity of the terrapins.
It is interesting to note that there are no willows or alders in the immediate vicinity of the pond for egg laying, although there are overhanging willows further along the river (which isn't typical habitat with the river...
Willow Emeralds - Cow Tower Pond
Thanks for confirming the sighting James. It is always good to have a knowledgeable second pair of eyes out there. And thanks for the nice comment Jim.
I also returned myself today (with binoculars). The conditions were quite windy but I did manage to see a...
