Thought I'd go for a walk around the village to clear my head after this weekend's fungus identification marathon.
Couldn't resist snapping a photo of these little beauties, growing on someone's front garden.
I was going to call them Golden Spindles Clavulinopsis fusiformis; but then I noticed the Collins (illustrated) Fungi Guide includes another species, Yellow Club Clavulinopsis helvola, which is "very common; often confused with C. fusiformis but smaller and spores different".
These fruit bodies did seem quite small to me, so I wonder if what I've got here is C. helvola. Haven't had any luck getting a spore print, yet.
For the record
