One of the areas that I like to regularly visit to look for fungi is the Lane Cove River Valley. It had been a while since I had visited the upper section of the river, so I decided to do a walk from Thornleigh Oval to Browns Waterhole, then exit via Terrys Creek. The fungi was not as abundant asI had been hoping for, but with a large area covered, I did find a fair amount.
My first stop to photograph, was at the bottom of Lorna Pass. Just before the track crosses the creek, I found a number of coral species and some green waxcaps.

At Browns Waterhole, I checked an area about 20 minutes walk downstream. I was looking for certain species – but I found no sign of them. So I headed back and had lunch before heading up Terrys Creek.
