Corstorphine Hill, Edinburgh

On Saturday, we had a lovely walk aorund Corstorphine Hill. The weather was very mild for the time of year (we're having a worryingly mild winter this year) and though the trees are mostly bare, it doesn't feel like winter. 

Corstorphine Hill is renowned for its fungi and we were happy to find a few at the weekend. It was particularly nice to find these tiny Scarlet Elf Cups  

We were pleased to also find this clump of puffball fungi 

and several species that we didn't get the chance to indentify, including these bright orange fungi, which look quite dramatic against the green moss 

We were amused by this tree stump, which looks a bit like a dragon
