Visited my favorite site for spring flowers today, a small reserve by the River Waveney. The cup fungus Sarcoscypha austriaca (Scarlet Elf Cup)was plentiful and is a common fungus of Alder Carr. Both the Adoxa moschatellina (Town Hall Clock)
and chrysosplenium oppositifolium (Opposite-leaved Golden-Saxifrage)had flower buds but as yet were not fully open for inclusion into the WFS diary. The diary to me is a phenological study and it is so important to record correct flowering dates.
This Sarcoscypha sp is the more common of the two known in the UK although I did find both species in the broads.
