Frosty fungi

A few days ago on my walk, I spotted this tree trying to be invisible and doing rather well.  I zoomed in a bit closer and found that one fungus amongus wasn’t quite like the others. But each had a delicate bit of frost, at least until the sun crept up higher.

    They are beautiful, Janet. In fact I don’t think I have ever seen a white one!

    • Usually they all look like the grey ones, so the white one really stood out. Not sure if it’s a different sort or what, but it makes a nice contrast.

  7. Such a fascinating sight, Janet.

    Wow! I’ve never seen so much fungus in one place. This is incredible, and what a great find. You photographed it well, Janet, giving us the full picture, and the details with that different one, and the frost.

    • Thanks. 🙂 I found it quite fascinating to have so much fungus just on that log and I liked the way it all blended in with the leaves that surrounded the log.
