#FungiFriday heating up in SC. Here is a glorious patch of Xeromphalina kauffmanii on moss from last month, when we’d had more rain. #fungifriends #mushroom

A #wide expanse of Berkeley and San Francisco from Indian Rock. That person got way closer to the edge than I could! (I got jelly legs) #BlueSkyArtShow

Pretty sure this is a white coral slime mold looking lucious on a fallen log. #FungiFriday #FungiFriends

Happy #Pride! I had the joy of volunteering with Upstate Pride yesterday at the 2026 Pride Festival. Growing up when this openness was taboo, and people I loved and respected had to hide who they were, this meant so much. Keep moving forwards.

I want to snorfle the murder cat.

It’s finally #FungiFriday, can’t wait to see what my #fungifriends have been up to. This is a camouflaged indoor mushroom. Imagine my surprise when I saw it growing by the shower in someone else’s house. If they see this post, then they will know, but I’m not telling. 2” Veined Shield?

No ragrets 😌

#Curve of toe and door, enter a magical realm of childhood fantasy. Sadly, it was closed the day I went. #blueskyartshow

Merry Christmas. Shitter was full.

A tiny #mushroom (with little companions peeking out) for #FungiFriday. This one was growing right next to the raspberry slime mold I posted last week. Nitrous Bonnet, I think, is the name of these #fungifriends. About the size of one finger joint.

George Conway hits the 🎯 with this brilliant campaign ad hitting the Malignant-Narcissist-in-Chief directly in his massive, but fragile ego. 🤣 I'm Mar🐫 & I approve of his message! 🇺🇸

#BlueSkyMonday comes to a close in gold.

Bee orchid #macromonday

No smoke rises ashen grey. The longest days are done. A #quietus settles over earth. Our steps no longer mark the mud. No voices echo on the air. As land blankets itself in fog. Rushing streams slow their song. While giants stand quietly stilled. Embracing the silence within their leaves. #vss365

John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts is fresh and minty again.

Lot’s of #sharp horns at this unique restaurant in Adel, OR. A lot of silent eyes following you, too. #blueskyartshow

A raspberry slime mold to share with #fungifriends on a bright and sunny #fungifriday. I have never seen this before, and thought it was fake for a moment, but who would go into the woods and plant fake fungi on a log for me to find? #mushroom

More pictures from yesterday, above Boon Crag, Coniston.

#Mushroom Monday begins early for me. Delightful walk yesterday, the woods awash with #fungifriends. This looks like wine-colored agaric. The cap was about 4” across.

Happy #mushroom Monday! Found a few on my walk yesterday. Hope to get into the woods tomorrow to see what #fungifriends the rain awoke.

What's up? It's #MushroomMonday is what's up, so here (for those not bored by my photos yet) is the latest offering from #FungiFriday last week. A wonderful tree-fern path by a creek in #Tasmania; maybe less riot of color than the previous week, but some wonderful species still! #FungiFriends #fungi

I’ve had some personal #growth in one of my passions. I’ve been collecting rocks for years, recently got a rock tumbler, and have been tumbling some of my finds. This is some lanite that I collected recently. It’s many stages away from finished. #rocks #blueskyartshow

Had to climb steep hills, many stairs, all to get to #tall Coit Tower (San Francisco). This is a black-and-white #infrared technique I’ve been playing with for a few years, new gear test. #blueskyartshow

A fungus photo a day: Elfin saddle/Helvella vespertina being parasitized by another fungus, Hypomyces chrysospermus. One of the coolest fungi I’ve ever found. Taken last November. #fungifriends #fungi #mycology #naturephotography

An absolutely gigantic Dryads Saddle (aka Pheasants Back) #fungi seen in Charmouth Forest, Dorset this week - what a beauty! Happy #FungiFriday! 🍄

A wee oak-loving collybia for #fungifriday. #fungifriends #mushroom

I’m going literally for #blueskyartshow with my #soft fluffers.

Finally it’s #fungifriday! Fusiform rust (Cronartium quercuum) that I found on my walk. We finally got rain, so hoping for more #fungifriends tomorrow.
