A Fungus Among Us
Bracket fungus discovered (and photo’ed) by Sue.
And a wattle hurdle made by me for no reason except to provide an opportunity to use my bilhook.
The hurdle is made of poplar saplings, about 4 years old. Seemingly a lot, but all harvested honorably. They are clonal sprouts that have grown up since the big Hydro clearing job, and they were all growing under the wires, thus with no hope of maturity. Further, the harvest took only a tiny fraction of the sprouts competing for the newly available sunshine.
