Here are some mushrooms, toadstools and fungi that we saw on our walk from High Barnet to Cuffley on the 17th of November.
You can see more photos of fungus here.
I'll post an update about that walk at some point in the not too distant future!

AROUND NORTH LONDON
We've uploaded some more photos to Flickr for your enjoyment.
On the 2nd of November, we went for a little local walk to check out some parks we hadn't visited before: Brent Park and Hendon Park.
At Brent Park, Dollis Brook feeds into a pond - formerly part of a lake that possibly acted as a duck decoy (hence the nearby Decoy Avenue, I suppose).
At the southern end of Brent Park, Dollis Brook/River Brent flows between these two structures. Not entirely sure what they are.
I liked this street sign.
Lovely autumn colours in Hendon Park.
On the 13th of November, we went for an impromptu trip to Moat Mount Open Space and wandered around the fields and woods for a couple of hours.
The morning light was gorgeous!
There were so many inviting paths... This one led down between horse paddocks.
Waymarker and permissive path sign. They close these paths one day a year so there can't be a future claim of continuous use.
The wonderfully named Leg of Mutton Pond.
On the 15th of November, we went for a walk with a Ramblers group around Hampstead Heath:
We were a bit overdressed in comparison - one of the group did say they were happy to see the serious hikers were joining them!
Golders Hill Park.
At the top of Parliament Hill. We had a good time checking out the view and watching someone try to fly a kite in the wind. We saw The Shard for the first time.
Others went for a pub lunch in Hampstead, but one of the reasons we did this walk was to have an excuse to re-visit our old favourite: La Creperie de Hampstead!
We've done several other walks and trips around the area, too. Stay tuned for further updates!
