Even quieter today, at Cortonwood, with only 2 bird species making it into the notebook : 1 Cormorant & 2 Buzzard.
And 2 fungi species making it onto the memory card ;
Shaggy Inkcap
Lycoperdon pyriforme : aka - Stump Puffball, Pear-shaped Puffball, and my favourite Wolf-fart Puffball.
And i`ll finish off with some late news from yesterday. In the evening i took the dog out to Cortonwood, in the hope of connecting with a Tawny Owl. I went one better and happened upon a Barn Owl hunting around the Spoil Heap. It was a real magical sight, especially as the bird was illuminated by the lights from the Retail Park. Glow in the dark bird... Fantastic :-)

top bird to have on your patch Dean. Hope it stays around for you to get some photo's.
Great Patch bird Dean and not an easy one to see these days. good crack

Thanks, all.
A great bird to see anywhere, and not just on the patch.
Just got back from another evening visit. Nothing at all, this time.
Dean ,
Really like that fourth option on the fungi too .
Also like alternative for Shaggy Inkcap-Lawyer's Wig .
Well done with the Barn Owl .
What wonderful names that last fungus has, I too like the last one best. ;-)
I'm envious of your sighting of the Barn Owl, they really are something special to see. Well done.
Thanks, Greenie/Toffeeapple.
It is a cool name, that last one.
