Hooray! It's mushroom time again. You never know what you're going to find lurking in the bushes. Here are pictures from a couple of recent trips up the street.

How fitting that a beautiful red Amanita muscaria is growing beside the local Fire Station.
   
     
   
     
A couple of Inky Cap mushrooms on their last legs grew near Tim's office.
 
     
   
     
Here's another Inky Cap near the driveway.
   
     
   
     
A beautiful, bright mushroom grew just beneath a hedge.
  
     
   
     
Others hid themselves quite well in the Autumn leaves.
 
     
   
     
These eyecatching specimens had seen better days.
   
     
 

 
     
Who's been nibbling at this Amanita? Likely a slug or a fly.

I went for a walk on a cloudy Sunday and got drenched twice. It was worth it.
 
     
   
     
What a strange Amanita. It seems to be melting.
 
     
   
     
All teed up like a little red golf ball.
 
     
   
     
The bright red Amanitas are very festive.
   
     
   
     
As the caps age, they often turn into shallow bowls collecting items.
  
     
   
     
Teeny-tiny mushrooms are everywhere.
 
     
   
     
During a shower I discovered this fine Amanita hiding under a bush.
   
     
 

 
     
Bravely this one hangs on despite being someone's dinner.
