Fungi at Ferndale Park – 6 May 2023

I was on a Fungi Survey at Ferndale Park – part of the activities program of the Sydney Fungal Studies Group Inc. Members and visitors met at the end of one of roads near the park – and we were soon on our way along the track down Swaines Creek.

We soon spotted some fungi. Fungi was quite abundant, but also well past its best. A lot of it was  falling to bits or had dried out.

Perhaps Clavulina vinaceocervina –

Clavulinopsis amoena

Armillaria sp.

There was a lot of Armillaria around all along the creek.

The group finished off around 1 pm. It had been a good survey with a fair amount of interesting fungi observed.

I would like to thank Nicholas Yu from Willoughby Council for granting permission for the group to undertake the survey.
