I have to admit to being pleasantly surprised by the profusion of mushrooms popping up throughout the forest, I'd imagined that the arid nature of our summer would've possibly put the kibosh on a mushroom season. How wrong I was. It's amazing that a species you'd imagine to be delicate and fragile could force it's way through ground which remains quite hard, and seemingly overnight too. All manner of fungi are beginning to appear, including the king of the edible shroom the Cep (Boletus edulis); it's still early doors though, but fingers crossed, here's hoping.
