As long as you don’t let fallen trees decay inside your house, you should be good as far as this one goes! :D

Lilac mushroom with fuzzy edges.
Not sure, maybe a type of Inocybe.

#fungifriends

Lilac mushroom just coming out of the ground. The stem and the edges of the cap are a bit fuzzy. It stands on the forest floor between autumn leaves.

I like a good color gradient.

Some damn good chipped tunes

I like my music to sound the way this looks.

A starfish that reproduces in the most insane way possible... it rips off its own arm, and a whole new body grows from it.

I assume they gave the lolly because you were brave while they pierced your ears?

Baby sparrow demands to be fed by mum, even though the food is right in front op him. Kids these days... 😉

It’s fine, it’s edible even. I’ve never eaten one because they look cool and I prefer to leave them intact. But this one is harmless, just very large.

I am a tall woman with EU shoe size 41, this thing was huge.

Het voordeel is: als ze er staan, dan zijn ze ook niet te missen! 😄

Honestly a bit curious if a mushroom like this will trigger the moderation system.

Possibly a rosy bonnet.

A pink mushroom viewed from above. It looks like it belongs on a human chest.

Large parasol mushroom.
#fungifriends

A large mushroom next to my legs in hiking boots. The mushroom reaches to halfway up my shins. Its cap is the size of a dinner plate.

Would you believe this spindly guy is an assassin bug? I picked him up initially thinking he was a phasmid…then I got a closer look at the face and saw the rostrum, and the raptorial forelimbs started to make sense! He's a member of emesinae, a reduviid subfamily I didn't know about before!
