Sassafras Gully Walk – Springwood – More Fungi and Slime Moulds – 22 March 2015

After enjoying what Bola Creek and to offer, I decided that a wet Sunday would be a good opportunity to check out Sassafras Gully again to see the fungi there.

So – the train to Springwood and the short walk out to Sassafras Gully Road and down the track to the rainforest in the creekbed.

The day was overcast, with light drizzle on and off. Good conditions for fungi, but their didn’t seems much out as my last visits a few weeks earlier. But there was still enough out to make the visit worthwhile. Some of the slime moulds were very interesting indeed and I think I am getting better at finding them.

I continued down the creek to the junction of Glenbrook Creek and then followed the track down to the track to Magdala Creek, which I followed back to Springwood. Despite the rain – I met about a dozen other walkers and runners on the day.

Here is a selection of my photos. To see more go to my website on this page and the second linked page.
