#Mushtodon
A clump of bright yellow mushrooms growing from the side of a tree. Some are dusted with debris from the tree, and one has been chewed a little.

Did a walkthrough of my little bit of forest to check for any down trees from last-night's winds. Had some larger branches down across the path, but no big trees down anywhere!

However there were lots of #mushrooms. So here's some pics for you #mushtodon and #mosstodon folks.

Photo from last week when I spotted these tiny perfect mushrooms growing out of a leaf.

And yet the sun rises.

The Mycena family of mushrooms are one of my favourites. They're prolific and common, and mostly vary only in colour, but they're consistently cute, and they have a charming love of mossy surfaces.

A view from below of a small mushroom growing from moss. The light shines above and through the mushroom cap, while the base of the mushroom is in shade.

With the poison ivy leaves out of the way, I was able to get back to the Varnish Shelf mushrooms to log a final photo of this year’s life cycle.

This photo was taken 5 ½ months after the initial photo in this series. It shows the trunk of a hemlock tree with 6 plate like mushrooms growing out of the bark, some at eye level, some knee and ankle level. They are dark maroon and tan, cracked and slightly droopy, their attachment points weakened on the tree. At the base of the tree are autumn leaves and bright green moss.
Same tree and mushrooms from the first photo but now it is 9 days later and the mushrooms have flattened and doubled in size. Less blubby and more plate like. The previous golden yellow has darkened to caramel brown and the white edges have yellowed. The bottoms are still white.
Seven large, flat shelf mushrooms growing out of a standing, dead hemlock. The largest is bigger than my outstretched hand. The tops of the mushrooms and where they attach to the tree are amber brown and they lighten as they get closer to the edge with yellow being the final color. At the base of the tree is a bright green carpet of moss. In the background are green shrubs, ground cover and larger trees.
Closeup of the bottom 5 feet of a hemlock tree with 7 round to blubby polypore mushrooms fruiting out from the bark. The young, tender mushrooms are golden yellow on top and white on the edges and bottom. The tree is in the forest with moss as its base and other trees in the background. The bark of the tree is darkened with rain.

The shaggy ink caps are sprouting!
#mushrooms #mushtodon
Two tall slender mushrooms with long shaggy white caps growing through fallen leaves. Their color and texture almost blends in to the gray sky and a few leaves clinging to the mostly bare tree branches in the background.

A dapper Common Earthball. Or as it likes to be called around Halloween, a Pigskin Poison Puffball [Scleroderma citrinum]

Much more intimidating. 😄

A rotting tree stump is in the woods, the ground covered with green winding plants and fallen leaves. Growing out of a panel of sheared off bark is a yellowish tan oval mushroom. It is about two inches high and is covered in brown wartlike attachments to its outer skin.

A mold-infested (I think, anyway) mushroom out in the woods. I was suddenly reminded of that one Tumblr post.

Macro shot of a mushroom, mold growing from it.
A Tumblr reblog chain: me holding a gun to a mushroom: tell me the name of god you fungal piece of shit mushroom: can you feel your heart burning? can you feel the struggle within? the fear within me is beyond anything your soul can make. you cannot kill me in a way that matters me cocking the gun, tears streaming down my face: I’M NOT FUCKING SCARED OF YOU --- Hey OP? What the FUCK does this mean? --- decay exists as an extant form of life --- That’s a terrifying answer, have a nice day
