Fungus among us...

We have several clusters of these fungi in the lower backyard. We have had lots of rain from Helene and the moisture helps the fungi grow.

strange looking things!

At first I thought they were stones. But clearly mushrooms. I hope the storm waters were not bad for you.

Wow that fungi looks amazing…I thought they were stones to start with….so smooth & round.
