Well I need a break from painting fences so thought I'd take a moment to upload this shot, I took it a couple of nights ago when walking my dog through a local wood.
It wasn't an altogther wonderful experience as the place was covered in dog poo, lazy owners really spoil it for the rest of us 
But looking on the bright side, because I had to keep looking at the ground for the whole walk, I saw this lonely Fly Agoric all on its own 
.
The light was fading as it was quite late but I just managed to capture this before it really was too dark.
I'm going to have a rest from painting for a while so will try and catch up with you all.
Hope the sun is shining on you too.

Quite early for them, I'd have thought but guess this year with so much rain we'll get to see many a fungi! This is a belter and will take some beating. It seems to be in prime condition, at a perfect stage of growth and the focus used is excellent. A top shot IMHO!

a great picture, it really sticks out and even looks poisonous
I think this is the first image I have seen this year too! Well spotted (no pun intended!), and a lovely capture with great focus.

A fine specimen Annette, it certainly is an early one, I never see any of these round my way either
Is it that time already ?
Like everything this year it seems to have come early
Lovely example of fly agoric Annette

Well done - this is super. I couldn't find any yesterday at Wakehurst NT
but they had just cut the grass.
