More turkey tail from my walk in the woods!
#ForestFriday #Scape #JanuArty2026 #Connection #mushrooms #fungi #fantasticfungi #turkeytail #forest #walkinthewoods #forestscape #photography
Brown, black and white turkey tail mushrooms are attached to the center ridge of a rotting log. The log has smooth swirls of brown and white running through it. To the right of the turkey tail is a patch of olive green and gray blue fungi. Bright green fern tips are peeking into the upper left hand corner of the frame.

Mr and Mrs Mallard for Bird of the day theme Iridescent #BirdOfTheDay #Iridescent #nature #wildlife #photography #naturephotography
A male and female mallard they were swimming away from me so the photo is showing the back of them. The female is brown in colour with brown feathers the male that is just in front he has white, and brown feathers he also has a green iridescent head. Because the sun is shining on them it show all the iridescent feather on both of them. Photo posted for #BirdOfTheDay theme #Iridescent
