I went for a short walk yesterday on a nearby forest trail that has plenty of mushrooms. The walk was short because the mosquitos were too much. I guess wet weather is great for both mushrooms and mosquitos! 🍄 #fungifriends

A walk today in the local green belt trails. The mosquitos were very hungry. A wet summer has made great conditions for the local mushrooms. Anyone know what these are? #Fungi #FungiFriends

I'm no mushroom expert (more of an enthusiast) so I refer to this fellow as a lawn mushroom". It has rained in biblical proportions around here this summer which seems to be good for local mushrooms! #fungifriends #lawn-mushroom

Two porcupines arguing in a tree. They were making a hell of a noise barking at each other. It could have been some sort of mating ritual but I think it was a fight. #photography #nature #porcupine #treeargument

I went to see the end of the Tulip Festival today. Colours were muted but there were crews removing the tulips from the beds so it was ok to take home some bulbs (they get a new batch of bulbs every year)! 👍 🌷 #flowers #tulips

The hiker approached the scenic outlook and was surprised to see a deer standing there taking in the view. Do they see the same colors as us, have the same cones and rods were the thoughts in the hiker's brain as the unseen buck bumped him over the edge to the pile of human bones below.
