Helvella crispa. White Saddle in some woods near Bignor West Sussex.

Thanks Lukas it looks about right. Hopefully will get some more next year and catch it sooner.

Lined up for the pocket. Again at Angmering Estate Woods. The ground is a little dry but still some beautiful fungi. #mushrooms @sussexwildlife.bsky.social

Thanks. Looking at the book, maybe ostoyae or gallica?

Not sure what these hairy lads are? Angmering Estate. #mushrooms #fungi @sussexwildlife.bsky.social

Family of Amanita muscaria out for a stroll at Angmering Estate #fungi #mushrooms @sussexwildlife.bsky.social

Some Bolete type of thing growing on my Sussex lawn, to some excitement. I'd be grateful to have an id. #fungi @sussexwildlife.bsky.social

Popped over to Henfield Church this afternoon to check out the waxcaps. It's usually a hot spot, but not so much today, probably needs a bit of rain. #fungi #mushrooms @sussexwildlife.bsky.social

😂

What do you reckon this one is?

Many thanks for the guidance

Seemingly not poisonous for everything. Several of these about, but didn’t see any gnomes with fishing rods. Ebernoe Common. #mushrooms @sussexwildlife.bsky.social

Always a treat to come across Amethyst Deceiver Laccaria amethystina. Just a few spotted at Ebernoe Common. #mushrooms @sussexwildlife.bsky.social

Sorting out photos from Ebernoe Common. I’m making this a Panthercap Amanaita pantherina. #Mushroom @sussexwildlife.bsky.social

Trying to think of a way of describing this without using the word erotic. Rising from the ground at Ebernoe Common a Sussex Wildlife Trust reserve. #fungi #mushrooms @sussexwildlife.bsky.social

Magpie Inkcap. Ebernoe Common. Sussex Wildlife Trust Reserve. #mushroomMonday @sussexwildlife.bsky.social #mushrooms

Congratulations. So many pictures of Birling Gap and you have found a fresh view.

Round-Headed Rampion - Phyteuma orbiculare. Still going strong on the Sussex Downs this week. #wildflowerhour

Some lovely plants seen this year and like children, I love them all; but this Greater Knapweed made a particular effort. #FavouritePlant #wildflowerhour

We are not talking RHS exhibition blooms, but we have some stunted, sulky Autumn Gentian - Gentianella amarella - showing at Steyning. None of them properly open yet. Wee little plants.
