I thought it was about time to make a visit to Ferndale Park at Chatswood to see what fungi was out.
My plan was to visit the park, then walk down to the Lane Cove River and follow the path downstream.
At Ferndale Park I did not find that much fungi. It has been wet – but not that wet recently. Here is some of what I found –
Stereopsis hiscens
Delicatula integrella
Cyptotrama asprata
Tremella sp.
Bolete
Perhaps Entoloma sp.
Cystolepiota sp.
Perhaps Lactarius eucalypti
And now for some slime moulds.
Stemonitis sp.
Acyria sp.
And some birds. At Ferndale Park I spotted a Powerful Owl –
Further down, near the Golf Course – a Laughing Kookaburra –
And a Welcome Swallow –
A Brush Turkey on a huge mound –
A Brown Thornbill –
White-browed Scrubwren –
No Ospreys at the nest –
