The cascade makes them look like they’re a moving crowd under the watch of that supervisor mushroom. The colours and shading are excellent.

Here’s one of my favorite mushrooms:

Thank you! And that mushroom looks like orange brain material. What’s it called? I’ve never seen anything like it.

Pretty sure it’s tremella mesenterica or ‘witches butter.’ I have a mushroom book that calls it “edible but gross.”

Eating them raw sounds gross (most mushrooms shouldn’t be eaten raw but jelly fungi are fine raw) but if you candy and dehydrate them, the texture is just like a gummy bear.

What. Good thing I remember exactly where I found it. It was near a bear I found, too! I should have followed the doctrine of signatures and taken the hint.
