Fungus Of The Day (One identified fungus only please, with species name in attachment comment and in post)

OK - it was actually the fungus of a couple of weeks ago, but I'm just trying to kick-start more input to the forum. ;)

Not a bad shot at all Adam! - And at least you're finding things with gills!
The only things I've seen with gills recently, are the small trout in Sunnyhurst Brook!

Mike.

Nice pic by Fiona from NBGW day. I think Bruce said this was King stropharia - a wood chip specialist only recently recorded in the UK. Some good info on the First Nature website - link below...
