Fungus in Lyleston Wood
See Image for context; this particular group of fruiting bodies can be seen in that picture.
At the time of submission, I have not determined the species. Though I did come across a picture of the same species online, it was in a stock photo that was wrongly captioned (as seems often to be the case with stock photos) as being of a slime mould, which it certainly is not.
The fungal fruiting bodies are not quite hairy, nor are they spiny like some puffballs; instead, the surface texture, when seen close-up, was more akin to that shown in Image (a picture of a different species), with fringed teeth. As for the droplets, it is possible that they were exuded by the fungus (in a process that is called guttation), but they may just be raindrops.

Gate beside Red Road
The field on the other side of the gate was being ploughed when I took this photograph.
The prominent white building with the green roof is Cardross Crematorium ( http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/433686 ). The River Clyde is visible behind it, and, further yet, the town of Port Glasgow can be seen on the far shore.

Red Road at West Lodge
The path shown in Image meets Red Road beside West Lodge. The present picture is a view of the road from that point, which is the western end of the core path.
Red Road itself leads downhill to meet the main road at Image, almost opposite the point (Image) where a road leads down to Ardmore Point.
Ardmore Point itself can be seen in this picture, just right of centre, as a wooded promontory, projecting out into the Firth of Clyde.
