Continuing to catch up with the backlog, a set of pictures from Holystone<\/a> woods taken in early October.\u00a0 The original plan had been to visit to Cragside<\/a> (below), but ths ite was closed due to high winds.\u00a0 Closing the grounds seemed fair enough, but not allowing visitors to the house because it was a bit windy seemed very overcautious (no doubt “health and safety” back covering).<\/p>\n

\"CragsideView\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The closest we got to Cragside, before deciding to go to Holystone.<\/p>\n

\"WoodsRoad\"<\/a> \"WoodsTree\"<\/a><\/p>\n

As per the comments above, the area was very pleasant, but the major (Red) trail badly needs maintenance!<\/p>\n

\"WoodsBeechwoodSickener\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The beechwood sickener<\/a>.\u00a0 Not as nasty as its name and lurid colour suggest, but inedible nonetheless.<\/p>\n

\"WoodsGranularFungus\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A strange fungus that I haven’t been able to identify despite its distinctive form, resembling a coarse powder.\u00a0 It seems too “granular” to be a coral-type fungus.<\/p>\n

\"WoodsInkcap\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A pretty example of a common inkcap<\/a> between its dull early stage and its blackened late stage.<\/p>\n

\"WoodsOrangeFungus\"<\/a> \"WoodsOrangeFungus2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Unidentified.<\/p>\n

\"WoodsBirchPolypore\"<\/a> \"WoodsPolypore\"<\/a> \"WoodsPolypores\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Collection of polypores.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
