My recent fungi walks have been very good, and I have been fortunate to see a lot of colourful species. I decided to head up to Hazelbrook and Lawson to see what was out there. In terms of fungi it turned out to be a rather poor trip – I did not find too much out. Conditions seemed quite dry compared to lower down at Springwood.
I first went to the Terrace Falls area. I only found one waxcap – a rather old Porpolomopsis lewelliniae.
I did not find much else out. Here are some dried out corals –
I then climbed out and walked along the fire trail to the South Lawson Waterfall Circuit. There I met up with friend Roger. He had been doing a vegetation survey nearby. Again we did not find too much fungi out –
And one slime mould –
But we did spot a number Greenhood Orchids –
