Description
G'day.
Sorry i havent uploded for a while have been way to busy with work and life in general!!
Here is a shot of two star fungi (puff ball) which is approx 2.5cm across the ball part. When you (or an animal) steps on it, a puff of spores comesout.
There are many types of puff balls and i really enjoy searching for the more weird fungus types.
We are no heading into winter (down under in Oz) and some rain has come (finally) so the fungi is growing great now!!
Enjoy
Lou
