“A tiny mushroom, a beautiful reminder of nature's creativity.”
Good day, dearest hivers and fungi lovers! ❤️ Today, I get the pleasure to share with you another little find of mine... a mushroom.
One morning, as I walked outside, I have discovered another mushroom growing near our chicken coop in a different spot than the one I showed you in my previous post. While at first glance it did not have any notable differences, upon closer inspection I have discovered a small slice near the rim of the mushroom's cap.
I only discovered it while writing this article and looking at the pictures again. This little mushroom was covered in white color with gills on the underside of its cap. Its cap was very flat and scaly and had a brown spot in the center.
If I were to describe it in food terms, I would say that it reminded me of a pancake that has been burnt a little bit in the center. Haha On day two, when I came outside, the previously white cap of the mushroom had turned brown and dried up, changing the overall look of the mushroom to a more umbrella-like shape. While I understood that the mushroom was coming to the end of its life cycle, I still found it rather cute. Hehe
On day three, I came across another change into my mushroom that had undergone overnight. Its cap, started to close at the edges to look more similar to an umbrella.
It made me realize just how cool mushrooms are. Just by looking at one of them, you can see its character and have it change before your eyes with the change of appearance.
While I am not yet sure what species this little mushroom belongs to, I will leave its identification to you, dear fellow fungi lovers...
If you have managed to identify it, feel free to tell me in the comment section below ...
And with that, I say goodbye to this little mushroom and hope that you have enjoyed looking at pictures and reading about this little slice of nature's creativity. ❤️
