Woods adventure :)

Earlier today I went into the woods to hunt for bones with my grandpa, first thing we did was find where all the tracks were down by the creek, and there were a LOT. We found mostly deer tracks, but there were some raccoon tracks, rabbit tracks, and coyote tracks mixed in

As far as dead things go, there was some rabbit fur and feathers about, but no bones. There's been a hawk in the area lately, so it was probably him.

Of course, I did find fungi :D Its winter right now so theres not many about but the bracket fungi tend to stick around year round

I'm not sure what species it is, so if anyone knows let me know. There was also some reishi growing out by the wood pile, those have been growing there for almost a year now.

This horribly spiked honey locust tree was out to get me, and it did in fact spike me.

I was out in the woods a good 45 minutes before I headed back, and there were sadly no bones or antlers to be found. I did find some pretty blue glass and a crayfish claw though :D

Then I headed to the barn to see if any owls had left some bones for me. They had not, but the lighting was really nice :)

Funguary Day 1: Veiled Lady

This mushroom has an intense stink that attracts insects and gives the mushroom its several other names, including “basket stinkhorn”, “longnet stinkhorn”, and “crinoline stinkhorn”. The insects attracted to the smell help spread the spores of the mushroom after coming into contact with it.

I've also made an art piece for this day you can see here!

I herby pass the braincell to @that-onecookiehead

may you use it well

Funguary Day 3: Spotted Cort

This is a lovely mushroom, and also a perfect example of mycorrhizal fungi!

The mushroom’s mycelium surrounds the roots of the tree and helps the tree to absorb water and nutrients. In exchange, the mushroom is provided with food and amino acids produced by the tree.

Mushroom fact of the Week!

Lichens are extremely durable. In 2005 NASA sent lichen to space to test how it stood up in the freezing cold vacuum. It was left outside in space for a period of time, and within 24 hours of rehydration had resumed all normal photosynthetic activity
