A walk to Short Wood

I'm told it's the seed pod of a form of iris:



This plant likes damp, shady spots and is prolific locally.





A silversmith friend has asked permission to use this one to create a piece of jewellery:





We're having a very damp Autumn and the fungi are loving it!



Marsh grass on a temporary pool:



Lichen and stump:





This stump has so much character!



Not a strange creature but a sweet chestnut husk lying close to some lichen.

Iris foetidissima.
Lovely woodland.

Wonderful autumn photos! Love the iris seedpod and both the tree stumps.
