User's notes

This looked like a large dog poo, but was clearly fungal. The closest end is breaking down into spores. 15cm long in total.

I see this cyclindrical Pisolithus from time to time, but I don't think I've seen one more than about half the length of yours.

Thanks Heino. I'm very proud of it! I'll go back this weekend and see if it's grown any more.
