DATE FOUND:
Day 1 – 12 August 2023
I found a Peziza (cup fungus) on the ground with moss and leaf litter.
The outer surface was shrivelled and a buff colour; the inside was smooth and honey-yellow.
I saw some more on the Day 4 (26 August 2023).
They were cream, some darker or more orange, but all were also shrivelled to some extent.
On the Day 5 (03 September 2023), I found a group of larger, olivaceous buff Peziza.
These were less shrivelled than when I had seen them before, with lighter edges.
By Day 6 (09 September 2023), they had all shrivelled again.
