Nature's Curious Hair Salon: The Stylish Stipe of the Ear-pick Fungus at Clumber Park!". In this enchanting snapshot captured by FLPA photographer Dave Pressland, we are treated to a whimsical display straight out of Mother Nature's very own hair salon. Meet the Ear-pick Fungus (Auriscalpium vulgare), showcasing its fabulous fruiting body in all its glory. Backlit against the picturesque backdrop of Clumber Park in Nottinghamshire, England during October, this peculiar fungus steals the show with its unique hairstyle. The stipe, or stem, is adorned with an array of delicate hairs that seem to have been meticulously styled for maximum impact. As if plucked from a fairytale forest scene, these fungi resemble tiny pinecones delicately balanced on their slender stems. However, don't be fooled by their charming appearance! While they may look like accessories fit for woodland fashionistas, these mushrooms are strictly inedible. Clumber Park serves as an ideal habitat for such fascinating organisms due to its temperate climate and lush parklands. It stands as a testament to the diverse beauty found within European nature parks and offers visitors a glimpse into Britain's rich natural heritage. So next time you find yourself wandering through Clumber Park or any other British parkland during autumn, keep your eyes peeled for these extraordinary creatures – just remember not to use them as actual ear picks!
