Oh yes..gorse is wonderful and reminds me of walks along the golf course as a child. <br />Erm, I personally have found the I have more luck with Turtle SBs by looking under fallen bark or any bits of wood I find lying around. They do seem to secrete themselves away and somewhere concealed like that has been most sucessful for me. I think I have only ever seen one or two out in the open. <br /><br />Good luck anyhow.<br />Ps: Sorry if this teply seems messy, doing it from my phone ��JJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07910443806244769469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7512356822916609819.post-29901035216154500342016-04-11T14:26:12.000+01:002016-04-11T14:26:12.000+01:00PS Half full 99% of the time btw! ;-)PS Half full 99% of the time btw! ;-)Rockwolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03334566749680287665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7512356822916609819.post-69356891263622845822016-04-11T14:25:42.764+01:002016-04-11T14:25:42.764+01:00Brilliant blog as usual!

Seen the odd one out, but no 'carpets' yet!<br />How and where did you find the Turtle SB please? Have only found it the once and keen to do so again! Any pointers gratefully received! :-)<br />MxRockwolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03334566749680287665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7512356822916609819.post-3056481580762070682016-04-08T09:02:38.479+01:002016-04-08T09:02:38.479+01:00Hello Amanda.

I thank-you f...Hi Stevie. Good to hear from you ;-)<br />I thank-you for this ID on my 'fungus'. I have to say that I hadn't considered slime mould, let alone your suggestion. ;-) You could well be correct though. The only think that has me doubting a little is that this was at least 100mm across and was not on dead wood but a growing tree, which I was pretty sure was birch.

Great read as usual. I'm amazed how advanced you bluebells are compared with ours. It'll be another month at least I reckon before we have a display like yours. Will be interested to see your revamped blog!
