Well, in my front yard we had to cut down a tree. They ground up the trunk, so there was left a pile of wood. It's been quite a few months since then, more than half a year if I remember correctly. It's been decomposing, and there's new ground cover starting to grow over top of it. It's turning into real nice mulch, for sure! After a while, we could probably use it for a garden? Well, anyway, back to the point! We've had a ton of rain here. I mean bunches! Over the last week, mushrooms have been coming up like crazy! There are some that we always get around here, but there are others that I've never seen in my life! I'm curious as to what they are. There are two especially peculiar ones. I took pictures, but the two that I just mentioned I didn't get too close to! So, if anyone has any idea what kind of mushrooms are growing in my yard, please let me know! I'm not sure how to attach thumbnails, so here are links to the pictures. Please excuse the bad quality though, my camera is kind of weird: http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg299/sunalli/DSCI0256.jpg <--- I thought this one was just adorable! There's a smaller one growing on the other side of the yard http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg299/sunalli/DSCI0252.jpg http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg299/sunalli/DSCI0251.jpg http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg299/sunalli/DSCI0258.jpg These next two are the ones that kind of freaked me out! For all I know, they might not even be a type of fungi! http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg299/sunalli/DSCI0248.jpg http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg299/sunalli/DSCI0247.jpg

Hey, Frog! This post qualifies as a 'Fungus and Lichen' entrant, does it not? Welcome to the Forum, Bee, and congrats to you on your variety of fungi!
