Psilo-season

The Psilocybe semilanceata are arriving late again in the forest this year. They favour a wetter September, a thing we've not had for a few years now, as it is they're still very few in number and limited to pockets of longer wetter grass, the ground remaining too dry for the most part. As with all fungi I'm constantly amazed at the range of shape and form in which each species manifests. In cropped grass  usually quite small and uniform, although amongst the longer grass the uniformity of Psilocybe semilanceata's size and shape goes right out of the window.
