Thank-you Louise for telling me the name of this pretty little fungus. Came across the exact same fungus I had tried to photograph a week or so ago. Not by accident, I think as one follows routes through dense woods that a followed by deer or other. You think you're traveling at random, but the woods lead you places.
Happy 84: Visited G's "thank god the holidays are over party", the one she has had in January for the past 20 years. Saw lots of people I only catch up with at this annual event, people I've known forever. In the same way that this picture revisits my first photography love, yesterday involved revisiting.
Great capture and interesting fungus! Did you mean me above or another Louise?! I don't remembering identifying this for you but I don't always remember as I identify a lot of things!
