That's very seasonal, Willpar. Lots of fungi.
The shots of the pernettya - we had one once and didn't find out until the next season that you need a male plant in close proximity or no berries form . It's quite an unremarkable shrub without the berries so we didn't keep it for long.
The jay was a good spot but what were the 2 brown birds in the grass ? Couldn't get the scale.
Thank you Placi. Did not know what the purple berries were. Pity the jay never stayed a bit longer, but was lucky to get what I did. As for those brown birds, they are a bit larger than a sparrow with a speckled chest. Seen one up closer before it flew off. A little bit of holly with berries and some nice fungi, all adds up to Autumn.
So very many different types of fungi still thriving, and a wonderful selection of ferns enjoying an extended season. Glad to see the pot marigold is still blooming . And a jay to wind things up !!
Lovely, Willpar
I didn't know what the 'antler fungus' was, Willpar but Google says it's a Coral Fungus (Ramaria) - lots of types within this family and it's fairly common.
New one on me though. It's a lovely thing.
