The
#mothing
didn't live up to my own hype last soir. 9/6 here in VC27, with a pair of Feathered Thorn, a Barred Sallow and this poseur of a November Moth agg the highlights. Better than not, I suppose.

Unapologetically lighting up again tonight. The wind has dropped and it's feeling mild.

It's still looking very promising for tonight. The wind should become lighter from the west later in the night.

Definitely having a dabble with the actinic last soir. Only 2

, but a lovely Green Brindled Crescent+ a good ole Turnip saved the night in VC27.

Still a few

pics to check, from Holkham Dunes/Pines. I believe this one to be Liver Milkcap (Lactatius hepaticus).

A suitably seasonal Samhain encounter with this stunning Noble False Widow, lurking near our compost bins. Spiders and their webs have been viewed as powerful symbols of fate, creativity, and the interconnectedness of life, death, and the spiritual world.

Some Russula species from the dune slack. There were definitely Crab (xerampelina), possibly The Sickener (emetica) and maybe Primrose (sardonia).

I had a fantastic hike around my old stomping ground yesterday on Holkham NNR. Lots of
#fungi
in all the old spots, so here's a series of pics and attempted IDs in the ALT. I'm a bit rusty so any comments appreciated.

Evidence of Shrike presence at Burnham Overy Dunes? No sign of any while I was there, but I'm not sure what else could be responsible.

at Holkham Dunes this bright little thing caught my eye. Palpita vitrealis, taking in some sun.

Almost forgot that I had a hat trick of Merveille du Jour yesterday - a garden record. Always surprised at how chunky they are. Beautiful

Rather a soggy trap ce matin. However, this Mottled Umber was clinging onto the outside and was a very welcome nfy. 5/5 was the total.

With moths thin in the ground I turned my attention to
#fungi
this morn. 19 species in an hour foraying around Catton Park - my new local

patch. IDs are my best shot. Happy to be corrected.

A decent night of quality
#moths
in Old Catton, having switched to MV. Grey Shoulder-knot and Yellow-line Quaker were nfy/g and this dark form of Box

was rather striking.

An improvement in my Autumnal fortunes last night to the actinic. Just 13/7 but that included 2 Beaded Chestnut, that were totally new for me. A lovely nfy Chestnut + a delicious Barred Sallow and the biggest LBAM I've ever seen. Noice in NR6.

17/8 in Old Catton, Norfolk. Best was a nfy Brindled Green and a well marked Carcina quercana. Also, nicely marked Lunar Underwings continue to please the eye.
