A collection of photographs taken during our walk on 17th December 2025, Great Yarmouth’s North Denes (dunes). My comments are minimal since I don’t know the names of the lichens, mosses and most of the fungi. The most common grass here is Maram grass. Enjoy
🔼 Earth balls, mature form, tap it and watch the spore puff out like a cloud of smoke! 🔽
🔼 Sea Holly 🔽
Hope you enjoyed. Wish you a Happy New Year!












On the last two- is the brown leaf in the second to the last photo- the same plant as you show in the last one- or is it an odd leaf?

They’re both Sea Holly, but one’s dead & dried, while the other one is flourishing

I know where to look. Our dunes are wonderful, so much growing there. But they’re very low-growing and most people don’t notice them

Yet many of the local dogwalkers never look down at what’s growing beneath their feet

I think that distraction is our bane.

This is often the theme of my photography, to capture and bring to view flowers (and fungi) that others not only ignore but just don’t know they exist

Thank you. It’s not always easy to find subjects at this time of you, but our dunes never fail me
