Walk with funghi

[Pandabean]

Seeing as I have the week off work went for a daunder yesterday to a very small piece of wood near me. Unfortunately its next to a main road so no go for staying there. Going to check a wood up on one of the nearby hills this week which looks promising and not all a coniferous plantation either.

The main reason for going round to this wood was to take some photos of the funghi growing there but unfortunately I only found two types as far as I can tell. The second I cannot ID.

Came back with a nice bag ful of birch bark though.

Passing the Ben on the way.

This is the tree with all the Birch Polypore on it, some of these are pretty big.

Im guessing the shrivelled up things are dead polypore?

Anyone know who this head may belong to? There were bones scattered nearby and seemed like a small animal. Young deer perhaps?
