It's time for #FungiFriday hosted by @ekwaw.

Finding mushrooms can be a challenge sometimes and when you do find one, it's tricky taking photos of them especially with just a phone's camera like mine. Having said that, I do find it fun hunting them.

For this week's collection, these photos were taken on different times. The first seven photos were taken on one stump only. Check photo #7. That is where I took the photos of the first six. There were a lot of Reishi/Ganoderma mushrooms on that stump and the nearby trees. I'm not sure though if those are Reishi mushrooms indeed but it is my first time to see a lot of that variety in one place. These were taken near one of the tourist spots here. I wanted to explore more but there are stalls being set up there and I am in the way. As early as that time, there were already lots of tourists because it was a weekend when I went for a walk there.

Anyway, what I find interesting are the two mushrooms where one is on top of the other. Check the first photo.

I wanted to say that I think the little one is a pleated inkcap on top of a Heterobasidion annosum. However, I'm not sure so correct me if I'm wrong. It's hard to take photos of the tiny one for they were growing on the part of the stump where light is not enough.

For the last three photos, I don't know what they are. I thought initially they were ear mushroom but as I got closer, they were clusters of tiny white mushrooms growing near the root of a young pine tree. I did a quick check on the other trees in line with this one but there were no mushrooms there.

As I mentioned earlier and probably will keep mentioning this one, photography tiny mushrooms is challenging. I wanted to get as much detail as possible that would at least help me identify them using Google image search but no luck so far. I'll make a mental note to bring my clip-on macro lens next time. Hopefully that will help me take better photos.

Until the next #FungiFriday post. Happy mushroom hunting :D

Nice one👍. The last three that you talked about, they're classified as mushroom too with their sizes like that. I've seen a lot of them and they don't grow more than that. They oftentimes appear to be dying

They're tiny. I had trouble taking photos of them.

I see a lot like those at our backyard, uncle Arif. Sometimes frogs hide there lol 😁

Frogs are something that I miss seeing here. We used to have a lot of them back when I was younger.

Haha! Dayta lang ammuk :D

Reminds me of the good old days. We used to accompany our parents to the farm when we were kids. We saw a lot of greens and different forms and kinds of fungus back then.

You must be knowledgeable about what is edible or not :D
