Hey, get off the roof, your wasting your time π
The garden pond is
a) Frozen and
b) There are no fish in it!
Had a few fly over before but a first for the actual garden.

The bowling greens in Chester-le-street Riverside Park looking rather good for fungi today. Three species of waxcap and a number of patches consisting of hundreds of Earthtongues, I think these are Geoglossum cookeianum.
