Corstorphine Hill Christmas Eve
Crafty Gren Boyfriend and I had a lovely walk round Corstorphine HIll on Christmas eve. The weather was beautiful when we set out, though that didn't last
It was another great day for fungi
jelly ears
velvet shank
jelly antler fungus (sorry for the poor focus in this shot, but the light is lovely in it).
and most excitingly this orange peel fungus. Crafty Green Boyfriend works very near Corstorphine Hill and had told me about this orange peel fungus, but we didn't expect it to still be looking good on Christmas Eve. My camera battery failed after taking the photo above, but Crafty Green Boyfriend helped out by taking the photo below
This autumn has been my best ever season for seeing and identifying wild fungi, you can see more photos of some of the species we've seen by following these links

How lovely! Our snow has mostly gone. It's so sad! The cats are happy, though!
That sounds the perfect way to spend Christmas Eve,xx Rachel
