Happy Monday, enjoy your day!
We have been having fun looking for and finding mushrooms and fungi during our walk on the local fire roads near our house. Some are beautiful colors, neat shapes and sizes.
The fungi below reminds me of the coral you find in the oceans.
These mushrooms were tiny and very hard to focus on, especially with a tree branch in the way.
I think this may be Cortinarius, I am guessing there are many different species of purple mushrooms.
This is a view of one of our daily fire road scenes. This trail is closest to home and we go as far as we want to walk and then turn around and walk back home. We are still seeing a lot of greens but there are plenty of brown leaves covering the trail.
Below, the mushrooms were growing at the bottom of a dead tree, they are a pretty color and have some weird bumps on the tops.
We take a little trail to the lake, you can see a tiny bit of fall colors near the lake. Not much! I did see a Double-breasted Cormorant fly by, took quick for a photo.
Thanks for your visit today! I hope you enjoyed my post and photos.

The fungi are beautiful Eileen, I love the creeping fungi.
Thanks for sharing your walk with me...I think I may get out there myself today! The rain has almost dried up which fell last night. The fog hasn't dried up yet though. Love your fungi!
Hello Eileen!
The fungi looks like a coral indeed!
So many beautiful mushrooms and different species!
Wonderful pictures and Autumn images!
My favorite is the last photo! Amazing view of the lake!
Wishing you a lovely day and a happy week!

Hello Eileen,
Beautiful fungi. Yes, it looks like a coral in the ocean. I have never seen a purple mushroom.
Happy new week!
amazing fungi! so different from what I have seen. the coral look is gorgeous...
what a selection of the fungi, but your last photo is my pick, beautiful with leaves close up, and the water beyond.
fancy fungi, they can be beautiful!!! the first image does look like coral...and i have never seen a purple mushroom!!!
That coral mushroom is edible, I catch them more in the early summer here.They are real white when new. The last knobby ones I have never seen.

Trippy Post! <3
Funny shapes of mushrooms... flowers of the forest.
Have a nice week, Eileen!
That really does look like coral...WOW! It's amazing what you can see when take the time to look around. Enjoy your day! Hugs!
There is such a variety of mushrooms - so many colors and shapes!
Beautiful, colourful fungi.
Love all the different types of fungi you captured!
What a nice variety of mushrooms. Beautiful photos Eileen and have a wonderful new week P.S. You asked what the people in my photo were waiting for, they were waiting for a break in the rain.
I love finding the wonder of Nature on all of my wanderings.
What a lovely walk, I enjoyed it through your photographs. The mushrooms and fungi are amazing.
All the best Jan
The fungi are beautiful and it looks like a lovely place to walk.
Your Fall Colors look like ours. We are still GREEN.... Hopefully with the cooler temps, we may get some leaf colors soon...??????
Love seeing the fungi/mushrooms..... Great place to walk.
Hugs,
Betsy
The trail reminds me of a place I was at yesterday.
More awesome fungi and 'shrooms! My dogs find wild mushrooms to eat they know which ones to pick!
I love how weird mushrooms are!!
Amazing. Thanks for sharing.
I especially like the chain of pointy-capped mushrooms in the second photo. Mushrooms showcase nature’s endless creativity.
I thought the same thing of your first picture. Looks like it should be underwater.
Fascinating. I assume this means you have had rain … we are still quite dry out here … enjoy your week ahead!
Interesting selection of mushrooms, not your garden variety for sure. I don't recognize them at all.
You found some weird and wonderful mushrooms and toadstools there Eileen. I don't think I would be contemplating any of them though. It's a job for the experienced only.
Magníficos os cogumelos, estamos na altura deles aparecerem.
Um abraço e boa semana.

These mushrooms have really a very special shape ! Look beautiful !
Mushrooms are amazing. I like the colorful and the bumpy one. Do you know the difference between poisonous and non--?

Interesting post.
You saw a very nice variety of mushrooms Eileen. I don't think I have ever seen so many different kinds on any of our walks.
The fungi are beautiful. I shouldn’t be surprised that you know their IDs ...you are always learning. Thanks for sharing the beauty and knowledge!
I don't think I've ever seen a purple topped mushroom...cool!
I love all the different types of fungi found in the woods. My sister could distinguish edible from poisonous. I'm not that knowledgeable or brave. Lol
Fungi in all its forms is fascinating. I have a hard time identifying many of them, but they are certainly a delight to experience in the forest at this time of year.
My word Eileen, I'm astounded at the variety of mushrooms you photographed! The colours too are lovely.
A really beautiful view of the walk too.
Lots of good cheer to you :D) xx
Beautiful images Eileen
See you..
You have found some really interesting mushrooms, Eileen! The purple one is so pretty. Such a nice place to take an autumn walk. I love this time of year! x Karen
you are right that fungi on the top looks like coral in the ocean.
All photos are beautiful.
Have a great day
It's so nice to have these kind of walkways close to home. I'll have to investigate what our new area might have. Fun shots of all the shrooms!
What a lovely walk.
Hello Eileen. Great variety of mushrooms. Beautiful photos. Thank you.
love the trail shot
That is absolutely magical! I wish I could 'shroom pick but I can only do it with a few. I'm a bit scared about the rest but I do appreciate a good mushroom!
What beautiful finds, love the one that looks like coral. I to have been out looking so many amazing fungi to find. Just wish they were a bit easier to name !

Beautiful, natural and quite animate trail to explore variety of mushrooms and this fall (change) too was impressive!
Amazing all the different kinds of fungi, mushrooms around here this year!
I was moving a large pile of our cuttings back into our wooded area yesterday
and saw a HUGE white mushroom type, the size of a large bread bowl.
The biggest I have ever seen.
We've got a cool spell in Florida. Yeah!!! Maybe I'll get out with my camera. Enjoy all of your shooting the last three days. (I've been busy with honeydoo projects)
