I spotted this fungi when Julie and I were out on our walk on Sunday, it was on a fallen branch. I thought that it was a fossilized dog poo at first :giggle: Julie looked it up for me, and we think it's... daldinia concentrica (King Alfred's cakes)

it looks a bit like a very plump caterpillar, that's got it's head down and gone to sleep. :giggle:
