Oh my, always a lovely sight, a boletus. On this occasion the, not so common, Summer Boletus (Boletus reticulatus). Rarer in Britain and more common in Southern Europe, you do see the Summer Boletus and it's a good eater too. Though, as I say, it's not so common, and so I left it; it shouldn't be too long, hopefully, before the Ceps appear, I can wait. I've seen these before, but never so young. This young specimen still retains a velvety cap; that'll go as the fungi matures. Nice find and a further portent of autumn.
