The old and the new.

Magpie Inkcaps, Coprinopsis picacea, in a South Norfolk wood yesterday.

Remains of two old fruitbodies and the start of a brand new one.

Visited a couple of South Norfolk woods yesterday to see whether they'd be suitable for a fungus foray by Norfolk Fungus Study Group.

These are photos of the second wood. It's mainly old Hornbeam coppice. It was lovely but our visit was brief because of (much needed) heavy rain.

Leucogyrophana mollusca.

This resupinate fungus was growing on a dead pine trunk in a South Norfolk wood yesterday.

'Sizewell C #nuclear station is now predicted to cost £47 billion, with the govt acknowledging even this estimate may rise significantly. New nuclear means massive costs, a poisoned legacy to future generations, and whopping radioactive pollution.'

This a big deal: "China’s carbon dioxide emissions have been flat or falling for 18 months"

China's economy has grown by ~5% in the last year, so this comprehensively debunks the idea (again) that emissions are tied to growth. So yes, faster progress needed, but this is how you turn the corner.

A little project I'm working on at the moment. Some 2025 wildlife highlights that will become a folded little booklet/card as a thankyou gift to a friend.
