My colleagues joke that January has been a sodden, dark, misty tunnel. On a decaying picnic table next to the Physics Department, I notice bright orange fungi, like colourful jelly strung across the peeling blue paint. It reminds me of a kind of fungi I once saw in the temperate rainforest at the bank of the Puget Sound, near Seattle.
