Orange mycena (Mycena leaiana)

Found on downed tree in south hollow. Apparently has weak antibacterial properties. In the photo below, you can see the orange stain on my hand from handling.

Turkey tail (Trametes versicolor)

Found a beautiful flush of turkey tail while I was walking Sunny near Dove Cottage recently. Took me a bit to figure out if it was the real deal or false turkey tail. It’s real. Might harvest some to make tea …

Pretty sure this third photo is turkey tail, too, but I didn’t check to see if it has pores so I’m not certain. I was more smitten with the way it was surrounded by moss.

Cannibal cockatoo

Turn up the sound to hear Sydney crunch chicken bone in search of marrow.
Sydney’s knock-knock joke.
