I think it was last winter when photos were posted of something which looked like ice in a woodland - Patrick, Howard? A few weeks ago I saw something which wasn't dissimilar and caught my attention as I haven't seen it before. In a piece of mixed woodland near Fernhurst, there were many Fly Agaric growing at the base of conifers. Several of these had white fungal mycellia emerging from the decomposing toadstool and some had formed white cotton-wool like masses which appeared to be similar to the mystery pictures.
