went out looking for #fungi this morning along my usual hike, not much but a few nice finds including an earthstar, which always look amazing to me.

Found a fungi family on the mossy old tree stump out the back.

Close up photo of three round fungi growing on a mossy tree stump. The photo has been rotated 90% to give them a mossy, bark floor, and each has a face and arms drawn on. The smallest, in front, has an open, smiling mouth and waves with one hand. Just behind, very slightly blurred, is a second slightly larger one, also smiling. Further back is a much larger one, very blurred with the background, but visibly pulling a silly face, tongue out in a "pffffft!".

Today has been endless emails, grant writing, organising things, and three (thankfully short) meetings. No time for any research or teaching… 😢 But at least I managed to go for a short walk in the woods and spotted this beauty! #fungi #MushroomMonday

#sillyScribbles #mushtodon #fungi #nonsense

A close up photo of a pale, round, mushroom growing on a mossy tree stump, brightly lit by the sun. It has a smiling face & arms scribbled on, and is waving at you. The focus is tight on the central mushroom with both the foreground and background blurred. On the right hand side is another round mushroom, attempting a photo-bomb but out of focus. They are also smiling and waving at you.

#FungiFriday #Mushtodon #Fungi #Mushrooms

Closeup of the edge of a sawed hemlock tree with layers of orange, gelatinous mushrooms. They look wet and blobby and many are fan shaped while others are nondescript and brain like. Each is about the size of a small fingernail.

There's an incredible diversity in the world of fungi and I just love observing all the different strategies they've developed to not only survive but strive in the ever-changing world they live in.
