On This Day

By Tweedy

False Turkey Tail

Stereum ostrea

I think I'm right that this is false turkey tail rather than turkey tail fungus. I couldn't see the underside to be certain. It's growing on a decaying log in one of the local wildlife gardens. Correction welcome as I'm trying to learn more about fungi. 

Don't go large on this - it's a bit blurry. 

Today's tasks:

Plant the chilli seeds which I didn't do last week. Tried to do it yesterday but the compost was frozen solid.

Make spinach and feta parcels - a recipe kindly shared by Blipper AnnieBelle

Make a tagine for tomorrow to use up the preserved lemons in the fridge 

Clean some jewellery 

Clean the kitchen after all of the above

Do some trustee work

Try to track down my great, great, great grandmother Christina (or possibly Christian) Munn or Duncan. She makes a couple of appearances in the records but is mostly under the radar. It's mysterious because I have an ambrotype photograph of her - though in family records she's called Christina Colville. Strange.
