Early Autumn






"Evening all".....Great days in Cambrian ,lots of warmth [both physical and emotional]'
lots of moisture and fantastic tree growth ,the landscape is greener than an Irish paddock on St Patricks day !! Three overseas students are staying in the lodge whilst they study the local stream ecology ,fascinating stuff. Nothing dramatic happening but it is all so pleasant that I am not complaining ,let the people of Egypt and Libya have all the excitement . The onset of Autumn has begun ,Rowan berries ,hawthorn haws ,autumn crocuses are popping up ,on my reckoning all a month early ,could be a long winter .Cast an eye on this unusual fungi ,I've only seen them twice before ,they are called stink-horns ,and look quite incredible ,but they smell foul to attract the flies ,there are still more to come out so I'm hoping for a better photo .
