Happy Arachtober 25!

 

Thanks for Viewing.

I thnk this is a Tawny Funnel, but I am happy to be corrected. Seen in Hanningfield Woods today.

Southwest Arizona, USA Monsoon. Full Frame. No crop. No post processing.

Visited Etherow Country Park to check out the woodland there for fungi. Found several but looking for the unusual with a decent background. Light rain was falling on this specimen at the time. This is 13 images focus bracketed in camera then focus stacked in Helicon Focus Pro.

Not my usual but liked that it was all the way down the funnel

Leucopaxillus giganteus Giant Funnel

 

Good to go.

Before I was a software engineer, I was a chef for many years, since we moved from a house to an apartment the "junk" drawers got severly cleaned out. But I did manage to find my old meat tenderizer, garlic press and canning funnel.

Thank you for viewing, faving or commenting on my images, have a great day!

CC Week 2: What's in your kitchen drawer?

When the dust cleared up and there was a better view of the funnel again... check out that debris.

Again, not sure on ID but going by my book it looks closest to the Aniseed funnel. It was under deciduous trees

This is the view of a funnel weaver I'm used to seeing. If you've been anywhere these are, you've probably seen their platform webs covering ivy and shrubs, particularly boxwoods, where I've seen large colonies of them on just one bush. This one is a bit farther out of the funnel than they generally like to be. They wait back there for something to alight on the platform of webbing that the floor of the funnel becomes, and they dart out quickly to investigate when they feel motion. I know this because sometimes I can get them to run out if I tickle the web; unfortunately they dart back in just as quickly when they see it's not prey, so I've given up on that as a photoshoot temptation tactic.

Funnel Weaver, Barronopsis sp.

Hixson, TN • 11 Sep 2021

Lots of these springing up in exactly the same spot as last year in Brooklands Cemetery.

You see a leg of a prey in the web!

 

Labyrinth spiders (Agelena labyrinthica) lie in wait at the base of their funnel webs. When a tasty morsel wanders by, the vibrations on the web’s outer layers alerts the spider like the ringing of a dinner bell.

This is one of my favourite locations on the coastline of Portknockie in Morayshire, Scotland. The waves come flying in here with real speed and force, having been funnelled in the gaps between the rocks. This does mean you have to keep your wits about you depending on where you set up. I also love how this little bit of land becomes an island briefly at high tide.

Europe, Portugal, Algarve, Sotavento, Olhão, Harbour, Covos (uncut)

 

Covos are lobster traps. The ones shown here, waiting for deployment, are made of rebar, plastic webbing and rope. They have tapered internal funnels that allow the lobster to enter but prevent them from leaving.

 

This is number 47 of the Olhao & Ilha Culatra album.

Drove out to the bridge over Lake Pend Oreille a couple of weeks ago. Saw quite a few trains in a short time, mostly eastbounds. The added bridge allows meets like to happen now so it's not as much of a restriction as it used to be. Still a good place to watch trains though. My sunny day shot to show that I've been in Idaho.

There is one particular area in Brooklands Cemetery that always produces quite a few of these fungi.

The radar helps to locate the listeners...

City of Arts, Valencia

Mistaken Identity. These are likely to be the Clouded Funnels (Clitocybe nebularis) and not as I initially thought the Livid Pinkgills (Entoloma sinuatum). Thank you miketaylor11 for ID correction. Still look attractive and not as poisonous (Phew) and could be even edible, but www.wildfooduk.com/mushroom-guide/clouded-agaric/. Old arboretum. Westonbirt Arboretum, South Gloucestershire, England.
