The Street, Benacre
It was whilst collecting the Sloes yesterday I spied this view. Yesterday time was tight and I did not have time to sit out and sketch so the Sloes came home to be drawn. Today I went back to complete this sketch.

Sloe Berries
Although the hedges are no longer full of Sloes there are still a few to be found in the hedgerows of the lanes around Benacre. It had been a search for Hops but over the past few weeks these have finished flowering and the leaves are perishing.
Now I am sure Sloe berries are good for something!

Autumn Fungi
With the great summer we have had the fungi is taking it’s time to come. So off to the woods in Walberswick for a search in Newdelight Covert. Still not plentiful they took some finding. Good old poisonous Fly Agaric (Amanita muscaria) with its deep red cap with white flecks were a joy to find but they had obviously been enjoyed by some animals. At this time there of year there are always some Russula to be found, these were growing in a damp patch under Silver Birch Yellow Swamp Russula (Russula claroflava).
