more #MushroomMonday but new trip this time, just stuff seen along a walk from apartment to local coffee shop(!) whole lotta #amanita
an overhead view of a mature specimen of The Classic fly agaric, a rich, almost unnatural red with white speckles, surrounded by grass, oak leaves and acorns, and a bit glistening from the rain
a close-up of The Classic fly agaric, in a relatively young stage, about the size of a golf ball, but red with all the white spots, surrounded by oak leaves
The Classic fly agaric, same grove in the same needle-strewn floor, a variety of colors on the umbrella caps - reds, oranges, and a sickly bleached yellow-white
The Classic fly agaric on a very pine needle cluttered urban forest floor, one large orange umbrella hovering over a smaller, younger red cap, almost like a mother protecting her child
