Sir,

With reference to Mr. Evans' feature 'Out and About' concerning mushrooms, I would like to show you this photograph of my niece last week in my horse's field with this puffball fungus.

It measured 16 inches long by 15-and-a-half inches at its widest point, and is still there after three days, although the slugs have been enjoying a tasty feast.

Mrs. L. Rees,
