close up photo of the head of a Black-browed Albatross. A truly beautiful bird with a head that is pure white except for round the eyes where a black eye stripe looks like smokey eyeshadow. The huge beak is a peachy orange merging into a delicate pink at the end just above the slight hook. The background is the out of focus green of foliage hanging over a slate cliff side

I love when they put on their formal wear, but I will miss them!

A small painting of classic, fairy tale red toadstools, fly agaric. They are on a watercolour and mixed media background of undergrowth in greens. An original art work, please note that the frame is not included. Watercolour and mixed media on acid free high quality watercolour paper 5 by 7 inches (12.7 by 17.8 cm).

Fly agaric is probably our most recognisable species of fungus, with the mushroom's distinctive red cap and white stalk.

Hello #fungifriends! I need a little help identifying this cutie. I’m obsessed with how the cap curves up 🤩

Found in Western Massachusetts. October 2025.

Thank you! Very cool

I will check it out! We have a small Laysan albatross colony here on Oahu, I love it when there’s chicks, they are so cute!

Yes, usnea lichen is very widespread and there are many many species

Also good to know!

Hawai’i :)

Nice pic!

I love these mini ecosystems on trees

Thanks for sharing!

Yess, here in Oahu I see it higher up in the hills/mountains

Beautiful!!

Yes, some compounds in the lichen are antibacterial

Very ping!!

Usnea is a great indicator of an unpolluted environment so I love to see it #fungifriends

Yes, I am reading so much right now to deal with it all; please keep promoting your stuff so I can find it!

Thank you very much! I didn’t even see the small spider until I looked at the photo on my laptop 🤣

Centered in this photo, a perfectly circular Amanita muscaria cap stands above green plants on the ground and against the fronds of a green sword fern, which runs at an angle in the top right of the frame. The cap's margins are orange and slowly fade to a brilliant red in the center. Patches of white, the warts on the cap, are spaced evenly but not very far apart throughout the cap.

A perfect circle containing the colors of a beautiful sunset contrasted by green sword ferns 🤌🏻🤌🏻 Thanks, Amanita muscaria!
