THE BEAUTY OF NATURE

in #photography6 years ago

While walking in a very wet part of our property I came upon this fungi growing on a dead tree. I have no idea exactly what it is. One thing I do know is that it was beautiful.

To the touch it was a little slimy. It had a bit of snow on the top from the previous night's snowfall.

So many dimensions to it!

That’s a really cool find!!

haha its all hairy like, very cool. Looks like its growing on a pine tree.

Actually growing on a Sugar Maple. It is going to be interesting to see what the cold does to it. The first light snow of the season seemed to have very little affect on this little guy. Again thanks for the upvote.

Looks a lot like a Lion's Mane mushroom. Very good mesicinal properties. We just gave a box of lion's mane tea to my nother in law to see if it helps her alzheimers...

Nice find, but don't go eating that thing on my identification, please...!

thanks for the info and the upvote

You're welcome, did you ever find out what it was?
