I am amazed at the different varieties of fungi. These are quite interesting and new to me. The color is very mushroomy and the info is especially nice also. Great shot.
Looking at the thumb I thought this was a bizarre garden of disjointed arms and legs. Close up I'm still not sure it's not some weird Halloween gag. LOL!Thanks for sharing. BJ
