"Hmmm, so it's #FungiFriday, but I haven't seen any mushroom lately," that was just me talking to myself while preparing my bowl of cereal.
The hubby stepped out of the house without a word. "Fungi? There's one here, under the crate," he said after a while. Oh, so he heard me! I thought no one was listening😁
I left my bowl and headed outside to check if he wasn't joking. The crate he was talking about was on a cemented ground, so how would fungi grow under it? But look!
I forgot there was a small plank of decaying board under it. A perfect habitat for small bonnet mushrooms. I was to leave after taking pictures when my eye caught two more. Carefully lifting the crate, I pulled the wood out and voila!
Google Lens identified them belonging to the Mycena species or similar group of tiny fungi which grows on rotting wood.
Anyway, I played with them a bit, taking the wood to a brighter spot for a few more shots. My phone's degrading camera isn't doing their beauty any justice, or maybe it's just me not really knowing how to take better photos🫠

Here's a look at the underside of the umbrella-shaped cap with thin, crowded whitish to pinkish gills. The thin slender stem appears bigger and shorter than it really is.
Oops, I spent a bit more time than I anticipated, but I couldn't help it. It had been a really long time since my last participation in Ewkaw's initiative and I was just chuffed to have something today, thanks to the hubby😊 Sometimes, it doesn't hurt to speak our thoughts loudly.
And here's to end it with another macro shot of the top cap.
Well, it's a lovely morning down here in DD. Bright (sunny) and warmer, so I guess it's a going to be a fun gardening FriYay🤩
My best friend and I used to have so much fun playing with these fungi when we were kids. We found their umbrella-like shape so interesting, which made them fun to play with.

Yes, of course, there is nothing wrong with expressing your thoughts out loud. The mushrooms you served are very beautiful. I like them.
How are you, dear friend @ifarmgirl? Good morning.
Nature is incredible; it creates wonderful things. That mushroom species you found is beautiful—it's great that your husband spotted it.
Excellent shots.
Have a great day.
