Photograph Of The Month Competition -Entry 1 For December

The first entry for this months photograph competition arrived in my email box this week and I am thrilled with the photograph. Jane from Urban Extension has sent the photograph, so thanks Jane.

Winter Fungi

Here is Jane’s Photo of the Month offering for December. It is of some gorgeous fungi taken a couple of weeks ago in a local wood in Corfe Mullen, Dorset. Jane said, “I just loved the way it was so creamy white and knobbly, contrasted against the red/brown winter leaves on the ground.”
Thanks Jane this is a real fungi treat!

  1. Interesting fungi indeed. We had minus 12 degrees early this morning as we are 225 metres above sea level. I didn’t take any photos near a farm but there’s one of a blackbird at the bird table. Have a happy Christmas :)
