Sarah, a new website you might be interested in: http://www.ispot.org.uk/ You can post pictures of species up and folk will attempt to id them for you. You can also id things that you recognise for other people. Worth a try, perhaps? The site has been produced by the OU.

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.
