Day 1 #25 days October walking challenge

[skysue16]

I have been feeling unwell the last few days (little people sharing their 🦠!!) . This afternoon hubby was busy ….🚂and Squiggy needed his walk. I decided to have a slow ‘observation’ walk in the woods and look what I found! The Active10 app says I did 23 brisk minutes (and some slower minutes 😂) so I am pleased with that - Day 1 done 👍

🍏 wow that is enormous!! I bet Squiggy had a good investigation! Beautifully green still! Hope you feel better very quickly xx

oh wow! And an “observation” walk sounds great. Is that a “chicken of the wood” mushroom? I’m not good at identifying? But looks gigantic! (Might be the perspective?)

I have no idea which type of fungi it is! 😂 It was big but that photo was taken close up - here is a shot taken a bit further away.

Fungi on tree trunk

It is probably a ‘bracket’ fungi, maybe birch polypore since it is on a birch tree. Unfortunately bracket fungi damage and weaken their host 😕

What an exciting find, and hopefully the walk will have chased some of the bugs 🪲 away and you feel better
