Day spent with FUNGI and WEIMS. A day mushrooms were everywhere. Fascinating shapes/colors hard to ignore.And lets not forget the Weims

Our daily hike into the forest started like any other day. Down the leaf strewn path then I started to see mushrooms, on the forest floor, on trees, under leaves etc. Everywhere !! Amazing to find so many different sizes, shapes, colors and the weims were not at all impressed with them leaving me to take pictures while they explored all the nooks/crannies to be found. So indulge with me as I share these pictures of mushrooms I would never have thought to be interesting or even beautiful.








LILY judging the space between the two fallen trees. To jump or not to jump?
ROSE joins Lily. The trail continues on the other side of the fallen trees.
Decision made. Girls go between the trees. CERVELO goes for the jump, very gracefully I must say and with such ease. Those weims and their spring !

CERVELO clearing the two trees without difficulty.


This big mushroom was not easy to see. Blended well with the forest floor.

ROSE checking out the huge mushroom I was taking a picture of. One sniff was all it took and off she went to find something more exciting than a big ugly mushroom.
