2 walks led in pouring rain, next stop 2 more at Arley Hall this Saturday - and the rain is looking likely again - bah. @lucylapwing.bsky.social @lukaslarge.bsky.social @westmidsfungi.bsky.social @ima-mycology.org @gettoknownature.bsky.social @rspb.bsky.social @the-wildlifetrusts.bsky.social

2 walks led today, both in constant rain - the joys of being a conscientious and idiotic naturalist. The list was wet mush but I deciphered 143 species so the sodden clothes and feet were worth it.

Contemplation mode

Next two walks to lead are at Marbury Country Park this Saturday - chrome-extension://hbgjioklmpbdmemlmbkfckopochbgjpl/https://foam.merseyforest.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/FoAM-Events-Programme-July-December-2025.pdf - here's to some fine weather company and a few good finds

Natural history is grand - here are some fungi and some species that the authorities won‘t allow me to record ha, ha

150+ species seen on a short jaunt at Lytham Hall today before the latest Non League jaunt. We ran out of time due to the footy but hopefully we can return and top this figure. Full species list to be added to www.fungalpunknature.co.uk and iRecord

Footy this Saturday Maine Road FC then my next Fungalised gig - and in the mix some wildlife recording - we gotta do our bit - all without hate, prejudice or general nastiness

150, 000 records now submitted on the chosen platforms of The Fungus Conservation Trust and Irecord. This is simply the work of me and the missus who like nature, do our bit and humbly try to help a world in peril.

104 fungal species added to the FCT Database this year - now for the weekends noise - oh aye

Good gig last night - Benefit State, The Drones and The Daisymen, 51 species today, a nice coffee and then 6 goals @StockportTownFC v @longridgetownfc.bsky.social - no report as I am snowed under. Just had punch out on the bag, 5700 punches in 30 mins whilst UK Dissent blared away.

Fungal spores - let them spread and take over the land

40 fungi recorded today and a few other marvellous species - all details in the diary at www.fungalpunknature.co.uk

Fungal power to my few followers on here - live and hugs and a great slab of defiance. For nature we must give not take, for 2025 we need to up the ante. We are in free fall, we need to reach out and gain a new hold.

Well, all records now up to date - this is what we have input to the natural realm this year - www.fungalpunknature.co.uk/Diary/Fungal... www.fungalpunknature.co.uk/Diary/Sighti... I hope it helps?

Fungus year done - 4014 records submitted of 619 species - this has taken some serious time, I just hope it helps get the natural world protected.
