Fungi of beechwood: The Deer Shield (Pluteus cervinus), I believe, was growing on a decayed beech log entirely covered with moss. The colour of the cap of this common mushroom is typically much lighter resembling the colour of the young deer (hence epithet ‘cervinus’ from the Latin word ‘cervus’ – ‘a deer’; though some say that you need to look at the gills under microscope to see stag-like edges). The cap of this young and probably recently emerged specimen is dark brown, almost black enhanced by wet weather. Pluteus in Latin means ‘screen’ or ‘protective fence’, hence a common name for this genus Shield mushrooms. Lansdown, Bath, BANES, England, U.K.
I try to give ID where possible but often it is not an easy task in the world of fungi without special examination, and I am not a mycologist. So, if you feel that I’m wrong, please do correct.

TGIF.. have a terrific day.. thanks for your support
I'm working on a series of plants we have in our garden. These do not flower but are the most beautiful ornamental leaves I think I've ever seen. These are called Persian Shield.

While checking my hostas for snails (while engaging in my Gastropod Relocation Programme), I discovered this little Hawthorn Shield bug, Acanthosoma haemorrhoidale, on the underside of one of the leaves. As it was pouring rain, I carefully brought it into the conservatory to photograph. This little critter was more active than I had anticipated, being somewhat annoying by moving around. However, at one point it did stay stationary long enough to allow this 13-shot focus stack. It was returned to the same place in the garden where I had found it when I was finished.
No shield bugs were harmed in the making of this photograph.
Shield bug taken whilst on holiday earlier this year. There are many different varieties of shield bug, many with some lovely patterns and colours.
Many thanks to all who take the time to view, comment or fav my images.
With the temperature starting to rise (15-17°C (59-63°F), the Spring Flowers starting to bloom and some rain (about 18mm or 3/4 inch) over the past 10 days we are starting to see some insect life in the garden.
Normally by this time of year I would be seeing these bugs and many other insects everywhere. Often for macro this is the best time of year for finding wee beasties. This year however my local spot seems to be lacking. Hopefully next year will be better and this is just a blip. However, speaking to a researcher on the subject it seems there has been a huge decline in insect volume in the past 30 years. I certainly don’t have to clean my car of little splatters anywhere near as often.
