Aurinko näyttäytyi. Useassa kepissä oli liilatalin (Exidiopsis effusa) aiheuttamaa hiusjäätä. Lepän maapuulla ilmeisesti nystyhytykkä (Exidia nigricans).

Another photo from our walk this morning. Although it's supposed to be rare, we frequently see Hair Ice during the autumn or winter. I guess we consistently have the correct conditions.

In 2015, it was found that it was produced on trees with the fungus "exidiopsis effusa".

Although we see it every year, I hadn't come across such a large spread before.

@paulknightly I’ve heard that called #HairIce and it’s supposed to be associated with the fungus #ExidiopsisEffusa

@BettinaForget it looks like #HairIce caused by the fungus #ExidiopsisEffusa was there wood on the ground?
