Green Stain Fungus
Late February and conditions are dry so the green staining of the green stain fungus, Chlorociboria aeruginascens or C. aeruginosa, stands out rather than just looking like a dark stain. It is also a chance to try out the new close-up lens.
This piece of wood, about 200 mm long, was on Central Ride towards its southern end near Big Pond.

Hopefully we will get some better video before too long and will then publish it.
