We had a little rain late last week and on a venture in the park Saturday I happened upon these Shroons in several different parts of the park. I don't know their names but I thought them worthy of a view as they do make up a part of our creation. Mushroom identification goes to another level and I didn't attempt to name these for fear of falsely identifying them.
This one was growing a couple of feet from a beaver pond and was the only one around.
I spotted this orange beast from my vehicle and was pleased when I approached and snapped this shot of them bursting through the pine straw and litter.They were on a dry mid ridge overlooking a lake.
And this coral looking beauty was also on a dry mid ridge but it was coming from the base of a dead tree stump and well shaded.
It is amazing how fast they can grow and then how fast they are gone. I went back to take their picture again late the next day and they had begun to wither rather quickly. They didn't look nearly as good as the day before.
"Cherish each day, each moment, for there is no promise of tomorrow, and if tomorrow does shine it's blessings upon you, the things of yesterday may only be a memory."
