Description
I found this in the back yard. its 3 photos of the same mushroom taken over the course of 5 days.
the fungi are called puffballs because clouds of brown dust-like spores are emitted when the mature fruitbody bursts in response to impacts such as those of falling raindrops.
thanks for looking!

Fascinating photo of this odd fungi!
Shining work.
A great trio and all in different stages too.
Falling rain or kids stomping on them in a field when they were young and didn't know it was a spore cloud. The dust cloud looked like a cool explosion to our imaginations, lol. Good thing it wasn't alien spores. Nice work on the time lapse...

Very nice capture Barp.

An amazing species! They know how to spread themselves around! Nice photos!
