Fire from Tinder Fungus~ Attempt 2 !

[pitdog]

Went out with Mrs Pit today and decided to try blowing some Tinder Fungus into flame again but this time using Cedar bark.

First to get my ember established~

Then wrap it in the Cedar bark and begin blowing~

Getting a bit too warm to hold~

Too hot to hold so placed it on a branch and blew it to flame~

Found some wild edibles, Oyster mushrooms~

And another that is considered edible by some and not by others, Elfins Saddle~

Heading back with Mrs Pit and the girls~

Hi pitdog, great job on the ceder bark for blowing into flame. Just a thought for ya carry a piece of leather with you to hold that tinder bundle in your hands.

Great snaps as always. That Elfins Saddle is bizzare looking....seems to have been used as a candle stick.
Good results on the fire.

p.s. Top tip Mr B!! Thanks
