We had done this walk before. Bus to Lowestoft, bus out to Oulton Village, then walk by greenways and the occasional backroads to Hopton and bus back home. 10 miles. We were expecting to find loads of fungi.

These “tufts” greeted us as we got off the bus. The only fungi encountered for many a mile
But of colour there was plenty

Look closely. This reed head is beaded with sparkling dew

And there were plenty of trees along the greenways, but once you’ve seen one greenway… you know what they say… instead, I give you a mini-plantation

and a dam (no, not beavers, possibly the kids with their long lockdown vacation)

And here, what a delightful place to live, between woods and marsh, at the end of long-long lane

At last! A fungus found, hiding away in the grass

I loved this scene: the haws of the thorn, with ivy in flower and berries forming… and the wasp

Ah-ha! The Peacock suns itself, inviting my camera

Daughter, taking social distance to the extreme. In truth, she’s scouting ahead for fungi

Somerleyton, where we stopped for lunch the dew still lay on the grass

Hey, she’s in my social bubble! I think she walks so far ahead so she doesn’t have to listen to me talking, She has to endure it on the bus there & back.

Family legend has it that in my childhood, my grandmother would often turn off her hearing aid while walking with me, so she didn’t have to put up with my constant prattle! 😉
