Wood blewitts I think was one we found on the fungus foray
Tuffles
Shaggy ink caps

Giant puff ball
Boletes of various kinds (ceps)
Morels
That spiky hedgehoggy fungus
Oyster mushroom

... to name just a few.


Isn't there a fungus known as (very politically incorrectly) "Jews'

ears"? I
remember eating some when I was young after a mushroom hunt in

Cwmbran,
Gwent . . .


If I may refer to Belgian chocolates, or Boerewors, why may I not
refer to Jews'
ears?
But more to the point, I always look out for them whenever I pass an
old elder copse.
