What do you do when you find adorable little mushrooms among all the big and more common ones, but it is getting dark and the middle of the forest makes it even darker?

Any ideas?

You pick the stick as if they are flowers and you drag them home with you hoping there is sun sometimes soon to finally shoot them.

And this is exactly what I did.
I got miself some shrooms! 😊

Strange looks on the streets and questions "what rubbish did you bring this time?" don't bother me, nor surprise me anymore.

The next day I got some sunny hours and I finally had the chance to get some shots. The outer part is all nice and fuzzy. But it's the bottom that made me carry them home.

Millions tiny little holes. No, its not soft like a sponge or like the bottom on the normal mushrooms and I would pick and eat (boletus I mean). The underside is quite firm on those.

Got one darker one too. Is it another type I don't know. It was also thinner than the beige ones with more visible rings.

Look how nie it wraps itself around the stick. Kindoff reminds me snails when they walk on some thin edge :p

Another lighter ones - group of three. They all were pretty small which you can probably see. The sticks were like a pencil and easily to break from the broken and slowly rotten tree.

And the bottom again. Cause its so freaking pretty! :)

You made me laugh!
Why are you wandering through the forest at night and breaking off sticks? 🤣

But the photos were worth it, super! 👍

Hello dear friend @ewkaw good day
You were great bringing the branch to your house and then doing the photo shoots.
I love the texture of this mushroom, I have seen shelf mushroom, but none with a similar texture
I appreciate that you let us know this variety
enjoy the weekend

I thought that one is turkey tail but probably it's not. However it might be medicinal as well :)

I am not sure of that darker one is not a young one. But I wouldn't risk it.

I gotta be honest, I thought you took all your plants home and shot them in a studio setting, with that consistent black background you have! Darn that "holey" mushroom creeps me out and I don't even have that phobia of holes! Trypophobia

Ohh I don't have a studio :) I just wait for the sun to come out. I could make some tent and get some lamps, but I am too lazy for that :p

But the holes are so so tiny and cute :D

You took some great pictures of them and what a great idea to carry them home to photograph! Their structure are firm enough to handle themselves in undisturbed condition for quite a while. My partner once took a similar one back home and placed it on our tree to see if it likes it there. It didn’t! But it stayed there looking the same for months 😅

Hahaha :) Would be cool to be able to plant them like that. It probably was the wrong tree.. or too healthy :p
These ones stayed like that for a while too, then I left them in a garden.

These mushrooms know how to take care of themselves. A daily scrub each day to keep those pores unclogged and fresh looking.

"what rubbish did you bring this time?"

Mushrooms on a stick. This is something I'll need to try out myself. Genius!
