There's a fungus amongus

While the jet is warming up to take me away to South America (in just a few short days), another neat pic from my late-summer walks through the Walden Woods.

Since we had so much rain, there's been mold, well, just about everywhere. This particular one was at the base of a tree, and stood out so vividly it desparately wanted to be photographed.

My next report will, assuming all goes well, be from lovely Cusco, Peru. Ciao!
