I went to visit my paper birch tree
spied bright lemon yellow
what could that be?
Wow, a yellow mushroom!
There are three.
I am enjoying carrying a mirror
so that I can see what mushrooms look like underneath
without picking them.
I believe they are Yellow Swamp Russula
if you think they are something else, let me know.
also
Indian pipe are beginning to rise through the earth
such wonderfully interesting plants
found some other wonderful characters
with their super wide lower stems:
I am told they are Field Blewit's
I think of them as little beings.
mornings have been colder than my ponds water
creating wonderful mist dances:
and
this morning I had fawns in my yard, so cute
this mamma had triplets
maybe some day I will get a photo of all three

sometimes it is hard to leave home
so much happens here

ReplyDeleteTomás.
Fascinating textures on the fungi. Cute deer and fawn, and I love the light in that second to last shot!
ReplyDeleteWhat a treasure! It looks like you live near a fairy forest. Whenever I see mushrooms I think of Peter Pan and the mushrooms above ground were the chimneys for the Lost Boys!
ReplyDeleteYou have revealed such magic!
ReplyDeletewonderful photographs. love the indian pipe. and the mirror is a great idea.. the reflection is like a little trip into the fairy realms. magical.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOh my. Thank you for this beauty. All this beauty.
ReplyDeleteWOW. From magical colonies of mushrooms to MISTY ponds, I can see that your garden area Tammie Lee is as spell binding as mine. Isn't nature the best teacher?
ReplyDeleteGosh this is glorious, and with your black template, it makes all your musings even more striking with a nocturnal sense of wonder and wandering. Thank you for visiting!
Those mushrooms are amazing. And triplets! I have seen twins, but never 3.
ReplyDeleteWow...these mushrooms are incredibly beautiful! Love the ethereal mist rising over the pond....and the sweet deer.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing the beauty Tammie.
Enjoy your evening,

Such beautiful photos of your world. Love those yellow mushrooms :) Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThe Indian Pipes made me realize that I need to get out more than I have lately. I've been missing them.
ReplyDeleteThat's a gorgeous photo of the doe and her fawn. There's nothing prettier!
Dear Tammie - You showed us such fantastic encounters around you, with fungi, mist dance, and the fawn. Carrying a mirror is a nice idea. In Nara Park, not only fawns but also mothers wear reddish coat with spots as their summer coat. Look forward to the photo of the deer family.
ReplyDeleteYoko
Wow - wonderful photos of your world.
ReplyDeleteHappy day Tammie

It is a good idea to carry the mirror! Thank you for letting us look the underneath of the mushroom! Very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI admire your careful observation around you. Have a food day.
Thank you so much for sharing the beauty in your part of the world. I would love to walk outside and see a fawn.
ReplyDeleteWishing you a peaceful week.

Another knock out series of photos. Those little brown mushrooms remind me of stacked rocks. I hope you don't mind that I am going to steal your mirror idea.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, so much beauty! I love all of these photos, and that you carry a mirror! Good idea!
ReplyDeleteA great idea to carry a small mirror. I like those mushroom photos. Who can resist the mist and those fawns? Hope they aren't eating your flowers.
ReplyDeleteYour photos take my breath away....
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, for sharing them.
