Mushrooms at Mashantucket

Today's experiment will be adding a slide show from Flickr.com. I took a walk with my lunch buddies Nancy and Deb on the Mashantucket Pequot Reservation where we work. We've been noticing abundant varieties of mushrooms and fungi in stunning varieties of color, shape, size and habit. The fungiscape changes on a daily basis! Nancy tells us that the picture mushroom at left is called an "Indian Pipe."

Today was a great sunny day to combine our exercise with some mushroom hunting. But beware! Unless you are an expert, never eat a wild mushroom. Some are very poisonous.
