It's raining again... and the shrooms are popping up all over... 🍄🍄🍄

[ackhoo]

Either that, or they know @ewkaw's #FungiFriday was coming up!
I took this shot on Day One when I first saw them
See how cute the cups are...

---

Then they grew...
See the rain water collected within...
If you notice, there are smaller babies in the background
Also super cute, as all babies are!

---

And I found these two (or three) on top of the tree stump
Love how mossy the stump top was
Like a mossy wonderland

---

This was a clump of shrooms sitting by themselves on the grass
Looks like a tussle going on...
Best part of this was the over-turned one, showing off its gills
I always love getting a shot of the gills!

---

Just one day later...
and this is what I found!
Multi-layered shroomsville... all grappling for space!
Tell me that doesn't look like they're all going: "Me.. me... no, meeee...."

Cups! Fill 'em with ice cream!!

[ackhoo]

Shrooms flavoured ice cream...? Odd... 😂

[blacklux]

It will be refreshing and maybe a bit deadly! 😂

[lemniscate]

Reminds me of those fairy stories and I can almost see little fairies playing around the fungi. Nice photos!

[ackhoo]

Hahahaha... true - those fairies love sitting on them! :)
Thanks!

Beautiful specimens and a very peculiar title, which reminds me of that great success of the Supertramp group. And as always, very good photographs. Happy Saturday

[ackhoo]

Hahahaha, I always have some peculiar titles (if I can help it... :D )
Thank you, my friend! Have a great week ahead...

[ewkaw]

So pretty and big! The first ones look like cups!

[ackhoo]

Yeahhh, once they are at maximum bloom, they are big! About 8 inches across... :D
The babies are cute - yup, lil cups!

[anwars]

@ackhoo, very good shooting. but, can they be eaten, or if you want to fry them?

[ackhoo]

Thank you.... no idea if they are edible... Not going to try either! :D
Stir fried with some butter? ;)

[dswigle]

Yes!!! It does!!!! They all want to be picked! I am not sure I have ever seen so many! I never get fungus! I feel so left out!
