Mushrooms 🍄 yesterday, #Lichens today. Autumn is my favourite time of the year. 🍂 Suddenly everything on the woodland floor is perfectly suited to the tiny community. 🍁 Lichens are lovely. 💚🪵💛 Like crispy wee cities.
The ones with the trumpets 🎺 are my very best. 🐻❄️💙🤍

The #daffodils are absolutely aching to burst out. This chap seems particularly keen. You can just see the tip of his canary blond hairdo. Soon be spring!

As it was a little warmer today, I ventured out without my hat and saw something in the woods I don't think I was supposed to see. 👀 I'm a bit worried that if I was spotted he might not come down my chimney tonight. Oh well, he didn't seem to notice me. Merry Christmas everyone!🎅🐻❄️🎉💙

I've been strongly advised by my chums to get a winter hat and after much deliberation 🤔 🧐 we finally have a winner. It's lovely and warm. Especially when I pop a piping hot chestnut inside. 🌰 🐻❄️ 🫠 💙 ☃️

Here am I, conversing with a fly, and wondering what is going on with these chaps. 🍄 Why do they appear to have bottoms growing out of their tops? I'm baffled 🐻❄️ as was Mosca. 🪰 Who had to fly. I don't know why. But I guess the clue's in the name with flies. 🪰 Any ideas?

Ding! Dong! Funeral Bell! ⚰️🔔
Something about its name says I probably shouldn't add it to an omelette. 🍳 Frank Meringue says "It's probably only called that because they serve it in so many sandwiches at wakes". 🥪
Frank is not a man from whom I take a lot of dietry advice.

I noticed Trunky wasn't looking too happy. So I had a quiet word in his ear. He said he didn't like being called thick. He's actually quite clever. 🤎🌳💚🪵

I bumped into Frank Meringue again today. Who seemed to be even grumpier than usual. 👿 He was either too hot 🌞 or too cold ❄️. He wouldn't say which. I did tell him to take his scarf off. 🧣 But he wouldn't... He never does.

I spend an awful lot of time in the undergrowth 🌱 and as a consequence I meet an awful lot of molluscs 🐌 and to be perfectly frank, I've never met one I didn't like. 💙🤍🤎💚

Here I am with a handsome example of the colourfully named Pear-Shaped Wolf-Fart Puffball. 🍐🐺💨⚽ Which, it has to be said, leaves very little to the imagination. 🐻❄️🍄💙🤍🤎 #fungifriends

Hello. 👋 Cyril here. 🐻❄️ Struggling to exchange a few words with an ear👂on a stick 🪵. Well, I tried to chat, but answer came there none. 🧐 He was probably waiting to be formerly introduced... Speaking of introductions, I'm quite new to this neck of the woods and looking for #fungifriends. 💙🍄🌳🤎

Striding through the undergrowth, in search of fungal friends, I came upon these three fabulous specimens. 🍄 A trio of Olive Shaggy Parasols, I think. 🫒☂️ I love mushroom season. 💙🤎
