With some great directions from James Emerson Belinda and I made a short evening visit to Strumpshaw Fen on Saturday. With the A140 closed all weekend it was a torturous route but we got there in the end!
The reason for our visit was the ultra rare fungus Crown-tipped Coral which has only a handful of British records. I found it easily thanks to James and although most of it was rather brown and crispy one bit was in reasonable condition still. Field Digger Wasps were around the sandy cliff in the woods.
While there we had a chill in the hide along the Sandy Wall watching Water Rails, Bearded Tits and Chinese Water Deer.
