Looking straight down at a the circular cap of a bolete mushroom. There are a few bite marks exposing a whitish flesh. The cap is about 2 ½ inches across and is reddish ochre. It looks sort of velvety. Definitely the kind of mushroom you’d show off if you were a woodland faerie.

Looking straight down on the circular cap of a bolete mushroom. Its cap is roughly 4 inches across and has a few chomp marks. It is pale red with the inner skin being white/yellow. It is a smooth top that gently angles downward as you get to the edge.

This image shows a fascinating collection of bird’s nest fungi (likely species from the genus Nidularia or Crucibulum), which get their name from their resemblance to tiny bird nests with "eggs" inside. These small cup-shaped fungi contain peridioles—the dark, round structures that look like eggs. The peridioles contain spores and are spread by raindrops that splash them out of the "nest." Surrounding the ripe fruiting nest parts are the closed buds of dozens more.

color film photo of a pair of tiny, light brown mushrooms growing from a dense carpet of short, green moss; they have narrow stipes each leading to a round cap that curves slightly inward around the edge; looking closely at the cap, one can see that it's covered in tiny white granules and seems to be ever so slightly pleated, creating the appearance of dark stripes running towards the edge where the gills are presumably attached inside; in the foreground, the blurred outlines of several even smaller specimens are visible
