A shelf mushroom, about 5 inches high and 4 inches wide is growing on a birch about 4 feet up the trunk. You can see it bursting through the papery bark. The mushroom is unusually shaped looking like a a croissant with its ends pointing downward growing atop a more normally shaped hoof shaped mushroom. The mushroom has intricate bands and thinner stripes of various shades of brown, many of them tan and cream soda colored. On top of the mushroom is a drawing of a woman’s head, complete with flaring fashionable hat.

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 thrive in the ever-changing world they live in.

A hollow log was put horizontally as a spout for a natural spring in the forest, the water cascades out of it in a thin drizzle. The log is covered with a colony of brown-gold colored mushrooms with a flat cap. On both sides of the spring, the ground is covered in lush vegetation

Common names for this mushroom include “Apricot Jelly” and “Salmon Salad,” but I always think of those wax bottle candies and those ridiculous wax candy lips I had as a kid.
