Autumn Hues

Black and white image of a large, ridged mushroom or fungus growing on a tree trunk, surrounded by ivy leaves. The texture of the fungus and the leaves is highlighted by the lighting.

There’s a definite chill in the air first thing and as the season changes and the grounds start to take on their autumn hues there are squirrels everywhere busily collecting and hiding food ready for the coming winter.  Also in plentiful supply – and easier to photograph as they don’t move around so much – are lots of different type of fungi.  If you find any, please leave them where they are for others to enjoy – perhaps you could send us a photograph of your find and we’ll put it up on our Facebook page.
