Spot the Dacia Sandero behind. Both Renault-powered, but otherwise not a fair comparison! Thunder Grey Matt Satin finish. A £4400 option! I think it is eye-catching, but I wouldn't choose this colour-scheme...especially at that price. And even the salesman thinks it would be a challenge to keep it looking pristine :-)
Day 3, our first alpine views, stunning colours caused by minerals in the mountains, old mines, and our first experience with viscious mountain horse flies.
The alpine meadows surrounding Marmot Pass held a rich variety of wildflowers in full bloom. The striking red of the Indian paintbrush was especially nice to see.

I think this might be the Alpine Bush Cricket - Anoncotus Alpinus - but I'm happy to be corrected! Photographed above Saas Fee, Switzerland, in September 2016.

Cyathus striatus (Huds.:Pers.) Willd.
Fluted Bird's Nest, DE: Gestreifter Teuerling
Slo.: črtkani košek
Dat.: July 30. 2014
Lat.: 46.36037 Long.: 13.70408
Code: Bot_819/2014_DSC2282
Habitat: abandoned and overgrown pasture, under Picea abies, slightly sloped southeast, shallow skeletal calcareous ground, old overgrown slope scree, in shade, warm and medium dry place, partly protected from direct rain by tree canopies, average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 7-9 deg C, elevation 580 m (1.900 feet), alpine phytogeographical region.
Substratum: apparently on soil but more probably on small pieces of wood debris (Picea abies, Ostrya carprinifolia, Fagus sylvatica most probable) buried in ground.
Place: Lower Trenta valley, between villages Soča and Trenta, right bank of river Soča, near Trenta 2 farm house, East Julian Alps, Posočje, Slovenia EC
Comments: Cyathus striatus is a common species, but in spite of this it is rarely seen because of its small size and perfect blending in its habitat. To find its not yet mature, shaggy,brown fruit bodies in forest ground is almost impossible until one crawls on his knees through the woods. When the fruit bodies open, but are still covered by a whitish scurfy membrane, the chances to notice white small, round circles on ground are at maximum. However, the membrane soon raptures to reveal the 'eggs' and disappears. The tiny 'eggs' (spore bearing peridioles), not much more than 1 mm in diameter, and the brown-gray-blackish fruit bodies again become well hidden in ground debris and hard to find. Cyathus striatus can be easily distinguished from other species of this genus growing in Slovenia by its radially striate interior of peridium (wall of the 'nest').
Growing solitary and in small groups of a few fruit bodies, about a dozen fruit bodies found on 1 x 1 m plot. They are of 8-10 mm diameter and up to 15 mm tall. From unknown reason I was unable to get spores although a few sporocarps and their peridioles appear mature and in good shape.

Captured Nov 15 2010 using Imaging Source DMK41AF02, Televue 2x Big barlow, Astronomik Type II red filter and Orion XT10 newtonian telescope on NEQ6 Pro mount.
Stacking was done using Avistack2, LR deconvolution in AstraImage Pro and other processing (levels, curves, etc) in Gimp.
