Sunshine Coast Trail
by Laurette Hamoline, 24 Nov 2017.
Twelve members of the Malaspina Naturalist’s Club enjoyed another pleasant outing with Duane Sept, our speaker from the previous evening.
We explored a short part of the Sunshine Coast Fairview Bay Trail from the parking lot to Harbour Point.
Along the way we saw several species of fungi including golden chanterelles (Craterellus formosus), winter/funnel chanterelles (Craterellus tubaeformis), bleeding mycena (Mycena haematopus), delicious milk cap (Lactarius deliciosus).
Of course the vistas and the companionship were appreciated as well.
