The storm passed through without incident over Southampton but our coast got a bashing.
So with the calm a few hours back in the New Forest.


A good-looking Roebuck.


And a small heard of young Fallow Deer.


I wanted to take another look at the Devil’s Fingers fungus to see if any more of the eggs had erupted. There were about 10 eggs last week but only one had “hatched”. Normally fungi develop quickly so I thought more would have been showing – perhaps the cold wet weather had slowed down their development, so I will try again next week to see if there is more movement.



I heard a number of people died from that storm. Must have been a really bad one.

Glad everything went okay as you mentioned in your comment the other day. That’s a great rainbow shot – I can’t remember the last time I saw a rainbow.
