Lonely Mycena interrupta in a cave

Solitary ice-blue mycena deep inside an old and very wet eucalyptus log.
Poignant as we are suffering one of our coldest wettest winters on record.

Do you consider the cold/wet a welcome relief, or not so much? Posted 3 years ago

  Unfortunately not Ferdi. We've had the same since December. Plants and crops aren't growing properly and everyone is thoroughly bored with a permanent winter here. La Nina will need to rest soon surely. I know you are all suffering the opposite at the moment. It's all gone topsy-turvy. Posted 3 years ago

    Mark i agree with you all the way. The only good thing is that I find a lot of nice fungi and should be a great year for terrestrial orchids , as I see lots of first leaves showing .Almost missed letting you know that your fungi is beautiful and I am still looking to find one .
