FungiFriday - Purple skirts

purple turkey tail mushrooms 3.jpg

Found those on a dead cork tree. What caught my attention was that purple colour! I have never seen purple Turkey Tail mushrooms growing in Poland. Always those brown ones in gazillion of shades. Those look they feed on ink :)

So pretty, fuzzy and surrounded by Lichens!
I could just sit down on the grass and shoot every single of those little nature wonders (and I almost did).
Don't ask me of those are edible. Are all Turkey Tails edible?
The purple colour does puts me off though.

Bonus black and white shot.
They make such cool abstract patterns!

My contribution to #FungiFriday by @ewkaw

I hope many of you will join as there are only 2 simple rules:

  • when Friday comes post your own, original photo/drawing/art/food/anything-at-all of any type of fungi (yes, I will check and report stolen images!)
  • add #FungiFriday tag (it doesn't have to be your first tag)
    That's all :)
