After the Greenway Bird Survey, in the afternoon, I caught a bus to Earlwood and walked down to Wolli Creek near Bardwell Park Station. I followed the two Valleys Track upstream looking for fungi, and then went downstream along the track, to Turrella.
I was also on the lookout for birds – and heard many, but was not able to get a lot of photos. Some light rain did not help.
On the grass near the start of the track I found this interesting slime mould –
I have seen in in the same grassy area a few years ago.
There were quite a few Boletes out –
I found a strange polypore growing around and between the base of small tree. Here are some photos –
Some parts of it were weeping –
I broke off a bit that was growing around the back of the bush and impossible to photograph in situ. Tis part looked more conventional –
I was also pleased to see some coral fungi starting to appear –
And some more photos of fungi –
And a bird –
