My bird photos are not the best but I wanted to share this anyway because I like Eurasian wrens.

The tiny bird with the big attitude.
#birds #wrens
A small brown bird with white specks on a tree branch. It has the typical Eurasian wren pose with its little tail held upright. It has its butt turned towards the camera and watches me over its shoulder.

Unknown mushrooms, they had a pretty good slime layer in which I stuck my finger.
#fungifriends
Reasonably large ochre yellow mushrooms growing out of a tree stump. Cap was about fist sized and had a slime layer, which makes them look shiny. Surrounded by brown beech leaves.

Very mean of the headphones manufacturer to include a picture to mock me, specifically.
Photo of a paper booklet that comes with headphones. It shows a line drawing of a person wearing the headphones around their neck while they are plugged in to the outlet. The person is drinking a glass of liquid and the liquid is dripping out the side of their mouth and into the headphones. On the top left is a circle with a diagonal line to indicate that you shouldn’t do this.

Spores

Moss and a mycomycete (Trichia varia) fruiting bodies for releasing spores.
#slimemold #myxomycetes #fungifriends #moss
Green moss with some sporothecas on sticks. On the moss is a small wood fragment with brown and yellow balls of slime mold on it. Some of the balls have already opened up and releasing spores from the yellow hair mass balled up inside.

Blue cheese polypore (Cyanosporus caesius).

It’s cool that blue mushrooms exist.
#fungifriends
Three fuzzy blue mushrooms on a log in an autumn forest.

Yes / no lady meme. Left: she looks disgusted. Text says: Going on a lunch walk to socialize with my colleagues. Right: she looks interested. Text: Going on a lunch walk to check the slime molds.

Maturing carmine red ones next to them.

Spider web in the bird watching hut.
A peephole in the wall of a bird watching shelter. The view is of a pond with reeds in misty November weather. In the peephole hangs a spider web with many small droplets on it.

I walked over to see what this brown mushroom with white specks was, turns out it wasn’t.

Parasol mushroom (Macrolepiota procera) in coastal dunes.
#fungifriends
A very large light brown mushroom with speckles in grassy dunes. The speckles have water on them that has turned brown, seemingly from the mushroom.

EVIL GOBLIN FACE
Zoomed in face of an annoyed brown alpaca looking at the viewer

This is what an alpaca looks like 0.2 seconds before it spits on you ahaha
#alpaca #alpacas
A beautiful brown and white alpaca, very woolly, ears back so that they are not visible, and making a weird annoyed face towards the viewer. It also has a funny fluffy white nose.

Today I saw a baby alpaca with a white goatee.
#alpaca
A black or dark brown baby alpaca with soft curly fur. It looks directly at the viewer with ears pointed curiously forwards. Its chin and lips area have white fuzzy hair, contrasting with the rest of its fur.

Fully formed they look really neat.
#slimemold #myxomycetes #fungifriends
Metatrichia floriformis on wood. They look like shiny black pins.

Two different myxomycetes. The red one might be an oligonema, the white one I don’t know.
#slimemold #myxomycetes #fungifriends
Spore heads of two different slime molds. Patches of red balls very close together. Around those patches are hundreds of white balls, like styrofoam balls. And they are a bit more loosely spaced.

Ok, so after 3 months of him claiming my desk chair as alternative bed, I’m admitting defeat.

I’ve given him his old, worn mattress back, and he eagerly and smugly accepts this victory.

Mushroom wearing a hat.
#fungifriends
A brown mushroom with a large flat cap that in the middle has a protrusion as if it’s wearing a hat.

This nice bronze-colored beetle is the spotted big-eyed beetle (Notiophilus biguttatus).

Springtails eat slime molds, and these beetles eat the springtails.
#slimemold #myxomycetes #fungifriends #insects #coleoptera
Close up of a bronze beetle with big eyes. It has a pattern of dimples in its carapace. To the left of it is a springtail. It looks a bit rainbowy but out of focus. Bronze beetle hanging out with some Stemonitopsis typhina slime mold fruiting bodies, which look like shiny dark cigars on thin eyelash-like stems.

Don’t worry about it.
#forest #nature
A dead tree in the forest that is so eaten by beetles that the bottom of the trunk has become a thin, ragged stick that’s really top heavy.

This rock broke in a cool way, maybe because of frost.
#iceland #rocks
A boulder about the size of a human head that broke in several pieces, but is still together, just with cracks running through it.

Violet webcap. Purple giant with a velvet top.
#fungifriends
A large purple mushroom between beech leaves in the forest. It has a thick stem and a think round cap covered with purple velvet.
