Stranger in a strange land

#nature #naturephotography #mushroom #fungus #fungi #lichen

A close up photograph of a small brown/orange mushroom, with a dark thin stem and a rounded striated slightly lighter cap. The mushroom is surrounded by reindeer lichen, in quite low exposure, giving the photo a darker, almost sinister vibe.

Finding its own way

#nature #naturephotography #mushroom #fungus #fungi #moss #green

A close up photograph of a small mushroom, centered in the image, growing on an almost vertical wall of bright green moss. The stem of the mushroom grows out horizontally to the left and turns up just at the cap, the bend in the stem hidden. The cap is the normal way up. The stem is brown and quite thin and the cap striated and bell shaped, also brown but lighter towards the edge. The mushroom and a small sliver of the moss are in focus, the rest of the photo is a large, green blur.

The mushroom kingdom has started erecting radio telescopes

#nature #naturephotography #mushroom #fungus #fungi #macro

A close up photograph of a mushroom with concave cap, which together with the stem gives almost the shape of a parabolic antenna. The mushroom grows on a dead log, which if mostly out of focus, apart from a very thin strip. The gills of the mushroom are reddish brown and the stem lighter, almost whit towards the bottom. The background is an almost uniform light brown/grey.

Scenes from my walk by the local lake. It’s amazing how a walk can change my mood for the better and improve sleep. 🚶‍♀️🚶

Fungi on fungi for #fungifriday.

These striking filaments are the reproductive structures of Spinellus fusiger, a parasitic fungus commonly known as bonnet or pin mould. It lives by infecting host mushrooms, producing thread-like sporangiophores that end in minute spore capsules, giving the mushrooms a fuzzy, pincushion-like appearance.

A single, slender mushroom emerges from a lush bed of moss and lichen. Its dark brown, conical cap is covered in a striking halo of fine, radiating white filaments that resemble delicate hairs or threads spreading outwards in all directions. These filaments are the reproductive structures of Spinellus fusiger, a parasitic fungus commonly known as bonnet or pin mould. They catch the light, creating a bright, spiky effect around the mushroom's cap. The mossy ground is a vivid shade of green, with soft textures and various pale green lichens scattered throughout. The background is softly blurred with green and brown tones.

a close-up of The Classic fly agaric, in a relatively young stage, about the size of a golf ball, but red with all the white spots, surrounded by oak leaves
The Classic fly agaric on a very pine needle cluttered urban forest floor, one large orange umbrella hovering over a smaller, younger red cap, almost like a mother protecting her child
an overhead view of a mature specimen of The Classic fly agaric, a rich, almost unnatural red with white speckles, surrounded by grass, oak leaves and acorns, and a bit glistening from the rain
The Classic fly agaric, same grove in the same needle-strewn floor, a variety of colors on the umbrella caps - reds, oranges, and a sickly bleached yellow-white

This time of year is so interesting for interesting people interested in interesting things. Saw so much
#fungi today, and here are three of the best, plus a really interesting gall

1) Upright Coral fungus
2) Candlesnuff fungus
3) Snowy waxcap
4) Common spangle gall wasp's gall

A pink-orange fungus growing vertically. It resembles very upright coral with little branches coming off at the top
Some thin, pointed vertical fungus growing on wood. They are individual stems, black like coal dust at the base and a little way up the stem, turning to a powdery white
A silky, ivory white round headed fungus in grass. Almost jellyfish like. It has a translucent quality.
Close up of a dark brown oak leak with a number of circular galls with a circular raised centre ... think circular fried eggs of poppers on clothes. They are a pale yellow/off white, with speckles. You can't see them but each raised centre has a larvae inside.
