Thanks Neil. :cool:

I meant to have numbered them when I put them up, so I've just done that now.

I haven't a clue at the moment with fungi. I have got a book, but to be honest at the moment I still find it hard to id them, even using that.

I honestly thought the last one was Turkey Tail.....I told you I hadn't a clue didn't I. :giggle:

Ooooo....you might be spot on there Paula. I did look at the Entoloma sp but appear to have missed that one. I'll check my gill and stem photos for confirmation.

Many thanks!

Great photos Paula :clap3:

2 and 4 look like Tricholomopsis rutilans (Plums and Custard)

Not too sure on the others but that bluey/green one looks very interesting.

This is a good photographic guide Andy:

This is a more in depth guide:
