Here comes the storm, batten down & stay safe everyone!
Mama bear wrestling with her cub. She's got him by the rear paw, nibbling on his toes I guess. They're in spring grass with a tree on the left.
Musk's censorship algorithm on Twitter reduced our audience by about 95% since he bought it.
So we moved over to blue sky.
Help us build another great following right here where the skies are clear and the water is fine ;-)

Badhamia nitens, a slime mould that likes it chilly. This nivicolous species was found growing on a tree in February, in British Columbia Canada. Just can't wait for #SlimeMouldSaturday #Myxos #fungifriends #slimemold #myxomycetes #Mycetozoa

Are you Cam Albright?
These little cuties decompose both cellulose *and* lignin on 7 continents, freeing up all those nutrients to support a multitude of others in their ecosystem, 24/7! Plus they themselves are edible, and produce medically useful compounds in our backyard and wild spaces. And they call beavers busy!
Aaaaaaaaaaangsty lichen says Aaaaaaaaaaa!
The beautiful,ubiquitous, and hard working Schizophyllum commune or common splitgill displays remarkable diversity in mating types. With around 23,000 different genders, these gorgeous little fungi demonstrate the future is definitely non-binary!

Shining back at us in the dark, always there, all around. Schizophyllum commune is the world's most ubiquitous mushroom; we breathe in approximately 6 of their spores with every breath we take. They are everywhere and they make the world a better place. ππ³οΈβππ³οΈββ§οΈπ #FungiFriends #Mushrooms

Glow cloud. It sees you when you're sleeping, it knows when you're awake. You can't hide, stop trying. Welcome to Night Vale.
I'm going to adopt a dog and call him Peeve.
He'll be my pet, Peeve.
Hideous? Hardly! But certainly slimy. This Gomphidius glutinosus shows the expected yellow base inside & out, but the hunter orange and robin's egg blue brought out by blacklight on the cap were a delightful surprise!π

Phaeolus schweinitzii, known as the dyer's polypore because of the green, yellow, gold or brown hues it produces. Here, the bright shining tubes and pores of a mature fruiting body hint at the fluorescence that it can also impart. π

One of these things is not like the others; one of these things just doesn't belong! Can you tell which thing is not like the others by the time I finish this song? πΆππ

Hypholoma capnoides, the smoky-gilled hypholoma or conifer tuft mushroom, is another late fall wood decomposer that glows pleasingly under a 365 nm UV blacklight. The gills light up in a sunshine yellow & the stipe turns chocolate brown. π

How about a fungus with a friend this Friday! This puffball had a scarletback taildropper slug buddy, both rescued from the cooking demo table at the NAMA Foray in Randle, Washington USA this fall. π

A Cystoderma species, with its whimsical sock-like base and delicate upturned fluted ring. Last photo taken under 365 nm blacklight, specimen a little the worse for wear after rattling around in my collection bag for a few hours. π

A fun find from yesterday, a Xylaria species. Love still being able to find ground-based fungi in the mountains of BC in December, makes up for last year's early deep freeze! π Last photo taken under 365 nm blacklight.
