Fungi

So I've been taking pictures of the different types of fungi that I find on my rides.  I'm sure I don't have all of them in pictures but here are quite a few.  We had alot of rain at the beginning of winter.  I started taking pictures at the end of 2012.  Now we have had a long dry spell.  We usually hit a dry spell in the middle of winter.  This year the dryness is lasting a long time.  I'm not necessarily complaining, it makes for some nice dry trails this time of the year, but we do need the rain.  I might add to this as the rainy weather progresses...if it ever gets wet enough again to let the fungi grow.  I want to add a warning...NEVER EAT ANY OF THESE!!!!!

I found this across the street from the barn

Hanging off of a tree...ugh!


Different types of "flaky" ones 






Even found some white "flaky" ones 


Yellow "blobs" with "flaky" ones 


These were very tiny...only 1/2" tall.  Found on trail on way to FLEC

These were on the forest floor
