#ThickTrunkTuesday (early for) #FungalFriday seen on a #Cumbrian riverbank
Hiking along the Skagit River on Wednesday we came across this mushroom, a Fly Agaric (Amanita muscaria) growing among licorice fern and fallen black cottonwood leaves. This mushroom is toxic. Do not eat. #fungalfriday #fungus #mushroom #PNW #photography #SkagitRiver #amanita #mushrooms #fungi #fungifriday

In #Japan, shimeji (aka White beech mushrooms) symbolize happiness and family unity because they grow in such close clusters.

Found some earthstars this #FungalFriday!
#FungalFact 21: Some earthstars are hygroscopic—they open in wet conditions and close when dry!
Raindrops hitting the central sac cause a puff of spores.
