Back in the days (damn, that stung, am I getting old?) November was a month when you could expect snow from the start. At the very least my memories of All Soul's Days from decades ago include wet snow or somberness and freezing rain. This year is pretty unusual, although it fits in the trend from recent years, just more - while it is colder and it is darker (mostly due to switch to Winter Time), the weather is still great, more fitting for October. It is entirely possible that new mushrooms are still growing, but now they are quickly hidden under the thick layer of falling leaves. What still sticks out are either those that grow on trees or very big and old specimens.

Since there is no snow I had to substitute with - who would have guessed - white mushrooms. No more talk - enjoy :o)
And finally my favorite of this set. From afar it only looks like white crust on tree stump, but up close the structure and contrast between white fungus and green moss is amazing.
Bonus - white piece of chert stone with moss hat. I'll take it to the garden on a later date :o)
Sadly this is most likely the last post with freshly photographed mushrooms this year.
