Spring is here and an old man’s thoughts turn to mushrooms. There are two species that commonly appear in spring; Morels and St George’s Mushrooms. I figured there was a fair chance of finding either in Beckenham Place Park. I’ve never found a Morel (sad face). I have found St Georges but that was before I started taking mushroom photos.
I wandered around for a couple of hours and nothing! The weather has been dry for several weeks and the ground was parched. So I started heading for the bus stop and then in a very unpromising place on a recently cleared path, I spotted a cluster of smallish white mushrooms. Obviously some St George’s Mushrooms appearing just about when they’re supposed to. Not the biggest specimens but I’m not complaining!
