I love this trio of parrot mushrooms! Featuring the last one I shared on the right side. I love how green the tiny one is!

Three shiny yellow and green mushrooms grow together in a row. The two tallest ones sit on the sides while a tiny one sits in the middle. They grow around a dark brown stick that has moss growing on and around it.

Gliophorus psittacinus, the parrot mushroom, is a mushroom that never fails to excite me when I find it

A gorgeous green mushroom emerges from the ground. Its stipe starts off yellow at the bottom and gradually fades to a light green over the course of its 2 and a half inches of length. Its cap is a beautiful emerald green and is conical in shape. Its very shiny and reflects streaks of light from the sky.

Like an alien-looking shower head, the Cone Tooth Fungus, Auriscalpium vulgare, is a favorite mushroom of mine

This is a photo of an unusual brown, toothy mushroom. The camera angle is looking up at the underside of the cap from below. Its stipe is fuzzy, or even spiky, and brown. The underside of the cap is made up of 100 or so tiny white, slightly rounded teeth. The edge of the cap is covered in the same tiny brown spiky fuzz.

Here are some nice mushrooms

A colony of brilliant amethyst Trichaptum biforme mushroom grow in a mossy log. Their undersides are visible as this log recently fell from the dead tree it topped. All photos by me

It took a lot of work to prepare this stack of these insanely pretty parrot mushrooms! Those yellow and green stipes are 🤌🏻🤌🏻

This is a photo of a cluster of four shiny green mushrooms. Three of them on the right grow from almost the same spot, while one on the left is slightly separated from them. Two of the three on the right are shorter while a taller one looms over them. Their stipes start as yellow at the base and then fade to green as they approach the cap. The caps are a yellow-green at the margin and turn to dark emerald green at the top. Their caps are shiny with a thin layer of viscous slime.

I reply “hell yeah” to a lot of mushroom photos because when I see a picture of a mushroom a little voice in my head goes “hell yeah” and then I type that and hit send
