a rarity?

Exidia thuretiana
White Brain Fungus

fungi identification is difficult at best and the most precise method is to send off samples to a lab to check DNA structure... that being said, this one does tick the boxes
I have a soft spot for fungi since doing an Arboriculture Course at Capel Manor a few years ago, so this is a nice find on a piece of fallen beech

a long wet and windy walk in Craiglockhart
followed by watching last night's Strictly with the mother in law
probably a quiet evening in, as I have a half day at "work" tomorrow
