Mushrooms finally popping up ~ FungiFriday

(Edited)

Mushrooms have been shy this year. By this time, it's usually full of them everywhere. Last week, I was for a walk in a forest, and there was not a single mushroom. Something is missing. 😕

In the park, I managed to find several buddies, though.

The first coral mushroom (Yellow Stagshorn) of the year:

And a younger coral:

Coral mushroom, or Calocera viscosa, likes conifer wood. I find the name funny. It belongs to "jelly fungi". I have touched it and it feels... well, somewhat rubbery and flexible, not as fragile as you would expect. Of course, I'm always careful with mushrooms. I never deliberately damage them, kick them or pull them from the ground.

More information in the links at the end of the post.

I also found a cute bunch of mushrooms just coming out of the ground.

And the last one for today is slightly bigger than the previous ones. A fly had claimed ownership of it.

This is my contribution to FungiFriday by @ewkaw.

I have never seen a mushroom that looks like coral and is yellow in color, it is a very beautiful mushroom.

The fact that we have fungi on land that resembles coral from the ocean is fascinating. The bright orange has me in awe. 🍄

There are multiple coral mushroom species. There’s even a rare lavender one in my country but I’ve never seen one.
