From a Fairy’s Perspective

Our lovely rain has helped out the fungi and mold! They are springing up. Certainly, a time to keep your eyes out for these important members of our ecosystem!

Colorful leaf litter!

The mold/fungus was taking over the remains of a horse apple.

So soft looking!

Shelf fungus!

Mold growing next to the shelf fungus!

Fuzzy!
The backside of the above fungus, the Common Split Gill makes it a standout in my book!

Could these finger fungus be a fairy forest? Or perhaps the fairy version of Easter Island? Often times when you look close, a brown mite or two will pass through. I did not get a very good photo of mites today.

However, the little beetle was cooperating on this mushroom!

Popping up in our field as well.

Same mushroom, but from the fairies’ perspective. 🙂 Of course this is assuming fairies are small. 😉
