Here are some macro pics of insects and fungi. Why are there insects here when it's time for the #FungiFriday challenge? Of course, these two objects are related to each other.
Previously, I would like to tell you a little about the fact that when I was in high school, I had no interest in biology. So at that time, my grades in biology were always below average.
But now I seem to get something different about biology, especially those related to entomology and mycology; that's a fun thing for me. Of course, this is not about complicated theories but more about the facts that I saw when I became interested in pursuing the hobby of macro photography.
The fascinating insects and various types of beautiful mushrooms never cease to amaze me. From that point on, I started to know a little about the scientific names of each species and their descriptions. I know it not from college but from a simple hobby: macro photography.
Not only about the beautiful things I found in insects and fungi, but I also witnessed strange things—sometimes scary—beyond reason, but they were real. For example, how can animals be related to fungi? There is a connection, for sure. The photos below say it all: there was a fly and a bee infected with Cordyceps fungus, or what is more popularly called zombie fungus. Parasitic relationships have occurred here.
