White branching patterns reach toward a tan and brown center with small nodules, comprising the center of the inside of a mushroom cap - with the dark striated patterns of the cap visible behind the white branching patterns. This is a slightly more zoomed out version of the first picture, still in bird’s eye view, with the inky outside of the mushroom cap now wrapping around the inside, with mulch and wood chips visible below the mushroom. In this picture, four hare’s foot ink caps of various heights cluster together in a bird’s eye view, their caps curled slightly inward, with mulch and wood chips visible below the mushrooms. This is a side view of the hare’s foot ink caps cluster of fruiting bodies, with long, pale stems that have white fuzz at the base, with black, inky parallel lines running from the top of the stems to the top of the caps, which are curled slightly inward. In the background, one can see mulch/wood chips and a variety of weeds and grass, with a redwood fence behind both.
