Fungi from today. The 1st was in the garden: I never noticed fungi in the lawn before! Some kind of Waxcap? Also on my walk the Deathcap, apparently the most poisonous fungi on earth responsible for 90% of all poisonings 😬, & Volvariella gloiocephala: edible but easily confused with Deathcap 😱
![Balloonfest '86 was a fundraising event in Cleveland, Ohio, United States, held on September 27, 1986, in which the local chapter of United Way set a world record by releasing almost 1.5 million balloons.[2] The event was intended to be a harmless publicity stunt. However, the released balloons drifted back over the city and Lake Erie and landed in the surrounding area, causing problems for traffic and a nearby airport. In consequence, the organizers faced lawsuits seeking millions of dollars in damages,[1] and cost overruns put the event at a net loss.[3] The event also interfered with a United States Coast Guard search for two boaters who were later found drowned.[1]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cyyd366g3hrxp5rynixm2mm3/bafkreiawb5nps4ncnbolwpfmuighhtyjuqlgty74kxwrdvwy5w3nyggopa)
