Due to popular demand back to the roots. 💛 #GianaSisters #C64 #retrogaming

Blurry pixelated picture of Giana from the C64 game Giana Sisters. She's famous for her unruly blond hair and miffed expression. Giana is wearing a red shirt and blue pants. She is standing on some bricks.

Jeepers Creepers where'd you get those beepers? 👀

I think this is a female Eratigena atrica. The males are less sturdy with longer legs. These spiders are big but harmless. My cat loves to chew off their legs - quite cruel (and gross). 😝

Photo of a giant house spider sitting on a wall. It's mostly dark brown with some light markings on its body. It's quite hairy, and two bright eyes are lit up by the camera's flash.

A dandelion in my garden. They are among my favorites - bees love them too. 🌞

A very fresh Leucoagaricus nympharum. This species may look similar to parasol mushrooms, but consumption is not recommended (stomach pain). Found in summer in Styria, Austria.

#fungifriday
A fresh starkly white mushroom with a distinctive scaly cap and a prominent stem ring which resembles a young parasol mushroom. The long slightly bent stalk is growing out of clay-like soil, it's surrounded by sticks and dry leaves.

This could be some sort of Lindtneria, but I'm anything but sure. I found this specimen in summer in Styria, Austria.

If anyone has a better idea, please let me know. 💛

#fungifriday
Yellow fluffy/felty looking mushroom without a stem growing on a log. It's partly covered by a brown withered leaf. It's surrounded by wood and sticks.

Blushers (Amanita rubescens) can be distinguished from similar species by the pink coloration that appears when the mushroom is bruised. The stem ring has ridges on its upper side - another feature that distinguishes it from poisonous lookalikes (e.g. Amanita pantherina).

#fungifriday #fungifriends
Beige mushroom with a flat round cap on a thin stem with a ring. The cap is covered in white spots. It resembles a very pale fly agaric. The mushroom is standing in the middle of a clearing, it's surrounded by grass and moss. A little path to its left leads to a cluster of conifers in the background.

Possibly an orange birch bolete (Leccinum versipelle) or maybe a Leccinum aurantiacum. Both of these mushrooms are edible and turn black when cut and cooked. Found in summer in Styria, Austria.

#fungifriday #fungifriends
Stocky mushroom with an orange cap and a thick white stem. Its surface looks fuzzy and felty. The stem is almost as wide as the cap. The mushroom is surrounded by sticks and leaves, there is some fern and other greens above it and in the background. They are letting through the light of the sky.

Otidea onotica commonly known as donkey ear and hare's ear. Most mushroom guides list it as edible, others state that it's slightly poisonous (gyromitrin). Found in late summer in Styria, Austria.

Cluster of orange mushrooms resembling small irregular cups. They are surrounded by little sticks, needles and flimsy spiderwebs.

Suillellus mendax? Not quite sure with this one - a look at the spores would give answers. Suillellus mendax is poisonous in combination with alcohol.

#fungifriday #fungifriends
Photo of a stocky mushroom with a velvety olive-yellow cap and a sturdy orange-red stem. It's surrounded by tiny conifers that are shorter than the mushroom, grass, little sticks and needles. There are blurred large trees in the background that are letting through some light.

Have a happy 2025. ❤️🍀🍄
A young fly agaric is standing in a clearing of a forest. It is surrounded by moss, grass and sticks, to its left is a tiny conifer which is shorter than the fly agaric, and to its right a pine cone. Halfway in the background there is another small, rather blurred fly agaric. The large conifers in the background are leaving a gap for the light to come through. The mushroom's cap is bright red with a very dense regular pattern of white spots, its stem is bright white. In the upper right corner of the photo it reads "Happy 2025" in black curly letters.

Day 24: a girl with a Christmas tree 🎄🎁💚

#AdventCalendar
Behind a window we see a girl singing underneath a Christmas tree. The tree is decorated with red ornaments, burning candles, and a star on top. The girl is wearing an orange dress and a ribbon of the same color in her dark hair. The atmosphere is cozy and warm.

Phaeolus spadiceus (velvet-top fungus). These are young specimens - later the center of the mushrooms will turn brown. I find it quite interesting how the blades of grass are poking through the fruiting bodies. They are not edible. Found in summer in Styria, Austria.

#fungifriends
Two bright yellow fuzzy-looking mushrooms. A few thin blades of grass are poking right throw the irregularly formed fruiting bodies. To the left of the mushrooms there is a large green leaf, further to the right there is a large stone, and otherwise the group is surrounded by needles and sticks. There are trees in the background. The photo was taken on a sunny day - parts of the fungi are in bright sunlight.

Pseudohydnum gelatinosum, commonly known as cat's tongue and jelly tooth. They come in different shades of white, brownish gray and almost black, possibly influenced by age, season and soil. They are edible but taste bland.

#fungifriends
Seven white irregularly formed mushrooms growing out of a tree trunk. They are surrounded by sticks and little greens, a couple of large trees are in the background on the right.

I think this is a Ramaria botrytis (pink-tipped coral mushroom or cauliflower coral) which is edible. It could also be a Ramaria rubripermanens which looks similar but tastes bitter. Found in summer in Styria, Austria.

#fungifriends
Large orange-brown mushroom that resembles a coral. It's surrounded by dirt and little stones. In the background the sun is shining through large trees.
