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.

I posted a looping gif of an oyster mushroom releasing its spores and a lot of people liked it, so I thought I'd mention I put up the original unedited footage in 4k on my YouTube.

A colony of unknown mushrooms grows on a hollow log transformed into a spring fountain in the German Black Forest

#fungifriday #vendredichampignons #mushrooms #mushroom #mosstodon #naturephotography #photography #blackforest #Schwarzwald #germany #deutschland

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.

[Guepinia helvelloides]

Top down view of a light orange, salmon colored mushroom. It resembles a squished shamrock in that it has three wavy heart-shaped (though that’s a real stretch) lobes spreading out. In its center is a powdery white tube that acts as a stem. The entire mushroom is approximately 3 1/2 inches across. The mushroom is on the forest floor with nearby leaves and pine needles.

There's an ethereal mushroom in there amongst the bokeh and dewdrops.
#FungiFriday

Ground level view on a hazy morning, with the low sun visible but pale through some trees, and blades of grass dotted with dew, and a single mushroom. It has a long thin stem and an umbrella-like flat top. The gills are translucent. It looks like a pleated gray silk skirt.

Common names for the same mushroom can run the gamut from alarmist to mundane.

Is this a:
A. Common Earthball 💤 😑
B. Pigskin Poison Puffball!!!!!! 🙀☠️

Yes.
[Scleroderma citrinum]

#FungiFriday #Fungi #Mushrooms #Nature #Pilze #Mushtodon

A somewhat round, leathery mushroom that sort of resembles a potato is in a large expanse of bright green moss. The earthball is tan with cracked markings and has a nickel sized tear on its top exposing the inside black spores of the fungus.

I found the tiniest little #mushroom in my backyard.

#FungiFriday

A very teeny tiny yellow mushroom, with an oblong head is emerging from the twigs and dirt amongst fallen leaves that are all much bigger than it is.

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.

Edit: this Toot will get edited when new tags are shared.

A vintage-style sepia photograph, presented as if on a film strip with sprocket holes and artificial scratches, captures a concentrated moment. Cynni is crouching on natural, rocky terrain among sparse bushes at Burgers' Zoo, fully focused on framing a picture. They look intently through the viewfinder of a black Nikon Coolpix P500 digital bridge camera, which they hold firmly with both hands. Their expression is one of deep concentration as they peer through the lens. Their left arm, featuring a complex stylized text tattoo, is bent, and a few rings are visible on their fingers gripping the camera body. They wear a dark short-sleeved t-shirt, camouflage cargo pants, and a dark baseball cap with white sunglasses perched on top. A Nikon-branded camera strap hangs around their neck. The background is a natural-looking zoo enclosure with other blurred figures of visitors visible in the far distance. The composition is a candid, close-up shot emphasizing their focus.

Couldn’t decide which one to post so I picked all four! #fungi #FungiFriday #lichen #Moss #Mosstodon #nature #mushrooms #mushtodon ❤️

Beige wood mushrooms growing out of a stump. They range in size from 1 inch to almost 3 inches across. There’s also a variety of moss and lichen surrounding them.

I call this work "Forrest-ception" it's deconstructed Fungi-Forest Fusion with lingonberry infusion 😜😁

Okay, full disclosure I have no idea what deconstructed means I just wanted to sound fancy. It's a mini-fungi ant jungle in the regular forest... 😊

Varnished Polypore, Hemlock Reishi
[Ganoderma tsugae]

#FungiFriday #Mushrooms #Mushtodon

A dozen shelf mushrooms, ranging in size from 5-10 inches and an inch high, grow from the bottom of a dead hemlock. The mushrooms are quite fresh. Their colors bright and glistening. The inner attachment to the bark of the tree are a deep brown/red, transitioning to yellow and then to a creamy white at the edges. In most of the mushrooms the edges are somewhat billowy at the edges and more sunken toward the tree.

I photographed these turkeytail mushrooms growing on an old branch that had fallen about 50 feet from my house. It really is true that there are photographic subjects in your own backyard.
