Hi - sorry I haven't been very active recently but here are some shots of Candlesnuff (or Stagshorn) fungus - Xylaria hypoxylon - I found in the garden the other day.

When I was reading up about it said it was actually edible, or at least wouldn't poison you, but it was a bit woody and not very tasty.
I haven't tried it though

This is the last of the Shaggy Parasols today. It is approximately 6 inches across the top of the cap that has a lovely twirling pattern.

Incredible that they are still growing. Must be the weather

(Lots of little holes in those leaves - wonder what made them.)
