This is what an alpaca looks like 0.2 seconds before it spits on you ahaha #alpaca #alpacas

Today I saw a baby alpaca with a white goatee. #alpaca

Striped slug munching on some mushrooms. #fungifriends #invertebrates

Fully formed they look really neat. #slimemold #myxomycetes #fungifriends

Two different myxomycetes. The red one might be an oligonema, the white one I don’t know. #slimemold #myxomycetes #fungifriends

Ok, so after 3 months of him claiming my desk chair as alternative bed, I’m admitting defeat. I’ve given him his old, worn mattress back, and he eagerly and smugly accepts this victory. #cats

Mushroom wearing a hat. #fungifriends

This nice bronze-colored beetle is the spotted big-eyed beetle (Notiophilus biguttatus). Springtails eat slime molds, and these beetles eat the springtails. #slimemold #myxomycetes #fungifriends #insects #coleoptera

Sorry I didn’t hear you, my socks feel weird

Don’t worry about it. #forest #nature

This rock broke in a cool way, maybe because of frost. #iceland #rocks

Violet webcap. Purple giant with a velvet top. #fungifriends

Tiny shrooms are the best. Frosty bonnet (Mycena adscendens). #fungifriends

A coral fungus. I like how the arms branch and split. #fungifriends

Nice color gradient in a slime mold. #slimemold #myxomycetes #fungifriends

Good to see emu chicks Graham & Stanley enjoying a workout

Violet webcap in the darkening afternoon forest. #fungifriends

it's me, unnamed critter from bosch's triptych of the temptation of anthony!

Amanita fulva. The top layer is a thin membrane just barely stretched over all those pleats. #fungifriends

Baby head tilt #EmotionalSupportSpood #Arachtober (the tiny Mr Neonella camillae, who is so small he feels Brownian Motion) Goodnight y'all 🖤

Happy Halloween! Here is some intelligent black goop that crawls through the woods autonomously. Metatrichia floriformis. #slimemold #myxomycetes #fungifriends

These automatic dubs on #youtube are a terrible idea and they make embedded videos unwatchable.

An isopod and yellow slime mold fruiting bodies (Trichia varia). #insects #invertebrates #slimemold #myxomycetes #fungifriends

A small red russula (species unknown). #fungifriends

Purple jellydisc. One of various purple fungi that you can currently find in European forests. #fungifriends #moss

Trichia varia in soft yellow outlining the edges of a piece of wood. #slimemold #myxomycetes #fungifriends #moss

Thin white mushrooms in moss #fungifriends #moss

A little terror for your Tuesday! Basket star filmed by ROV pilots at ~270 m during the #Taleof2Canyons — these many-armed ophiuroids capture prey w/ease. Escape is unlikely thanks to tiny hooks & sticky mucus-covered limbs. Once ensnared, tube feet shuttle the meal towards the animal’s mouth.

Coral slime in a sunny forest. Ceratiomyxa fruticulosa. #slimemold #myxomycetes #fungifriends

Fungi textures. 🍄 #FungiFriends

Jelly disc fungus. #fungifriends

Shining like pearls, guttation droplets under a wood polypore. It means the mushroom has grown a lot and is dumping out excess fluids. #fungifriends

Morning drama in the neighborhood! A young Cooper’s Hawk decides to test a Gray Squirrel and a stalemate ensues. 🪶

“Just passing through..”

Rosy bonnet popping out of the autumn leaves like a twirling pink skirt. #fungifriends

I can smell this photo and hope you can, too. #fungifriends #autumn #forest #moss

The tiniest mushroom. #fungifriends

Nice array of small ferns on a north-facing wall by the (currently closed) Transporter Bridge, Middlesbrough. Asplenium spp - maidenhair spleenwort, hartstongue, wall rue and (?) black spleenwort. 🐡 #wildflowerHour

People often respond to my hobby with confusion and disgust. It’s unfortunate, because this is an amoebazoa that walks through the woods by fanning itself out into a network, flowing to its destination, and I think that’s really interesting. #slimemold #myxomycetes #fungifriends

It’s #worldalgaeday and my most favourite of algae is the diatoms! Single-celled and microscopic, these algae are so important, storing carbon, making oxygen, cycling nutrients, providing food, and even helping innovations in science and medicine! #marineplankton 🦑

I can only assume that this is the detached tentacle of a ctenophore. Any other ideas are welcome! Even though it’s detached, it’s still moving about, as this timelapse shows. #marineplankton 🦑

Fuzzy hair coming from the cup of a myxomycete fruiting body helps to disperse the spores. This is only a few millimetres tall. Hemitrichia clavata. #slimemold #myxomycetes #fungifriends

More waxcaps popping up this weekend in Scotland - this time it’s the turn of the Parrot waxcap 😍 #fungi
