In the fall in the Pacific Northwest, you might find this very tiny dragon jealously guarding its hoard of fungus in the old growth forests

My biggest risograph to date, 11 x 17"! The colors almost hurt to look at irl :') I love this medium

Prints available!

Not a lichen, but I found the most adorable mushroom of my life yesterday and I gotta share

A perfect boi.

Neoboletus luridiformis

In the steamy heat of summer, it's easy to imagine the rich old woods along the Glade Run Trail as a tropical rain forest, which is not such a far-fetched notion. The cove forest along Glade Run is similar to the temperate rain forests of the Southern Applachians, lush and damp and overrun by moss, lichen, and fungi, which consume everything that falls to the forest floor. My hike along the trail earlier this morning made me appreciate the richness of these woods even more. Along Glade Run's shady stream banks, shinleaf (Pyrola elliptica), also known as waxflower, is in bloom, its pale green racemes sporting the most unusual waxy, nodding white flowers. I also found the newly-shed skin of a timber rattlesnake (Crotalus horridus) along the stream, although the owner was long gone. The distinctive chevron pattern and strongly-keeled scales are dead give-aways. Along Messenger Lake, the American water willow (Justicia americana (L.) Vahl) is in in beautiful form; its colorful, clustered flowers have a distinctive bee guide on their lower petals.

Okay, I was too slow to upload my Maine mushroom pictures, and now it's Mycoblitz time, so I'm just going to dump them into a post. I didn't spend much time on identification, but here's a generalized guess from top left: bolete, bolete (maybe Harrya chromipes), Entoloma (Entoloma quadratum?), Amanita, bolete (Neoboletus?), Russula, Humidicutis, Amanita, Amanita, Lactarius lignyotus (?). If anyone has any corrections or refining identifications, please let me know and I'll correct it. :) Happy hunting!

no matter what the cemetery mushrooms will always be there for me

(russulas, amanita, entolomas and boletes all within 15 metres of each other)

Various odds and ends from multiple summer hikes in Cheat River Canyon, from both Coopers Rock State Forest (east rim) and Snake Hill Wildlife Management Area (west rim). Thunderstorms, torrential downpours, and persistent mugginess are the general themes this year, with the odors of decaying fungi and fragrant ferns hanging in the humid air of the canyon's cove forests.

From top: View south into the canyon from Raven Rock; a bouquet of great rhododendron blossoms, which are just now starting to decline in the canyon; a crown-tipped coral (Artomyces pyxidatus) sprawling out into the fungal reef; shrubby St. John's wort (Hypericum prolificum), whose loose, shrub-like habit and large flowers show up up most of its lesser relatives; a red eft, the juvenile stage of the eastern newt (Notophthalmus viridescens); a spined micrathena (Micrathena gracilis), a prolific orb-weaver that spins a new web at a different location every two or three days; two-colored bolete (Baorangia bicolor), a two-toned beauty of rich, damp woods; a lovely cinnamon-colored bolete, perhaps Boletus rubroflammeus or Boletus flammans; young oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus), another prized culinary fungus, popping from rotting wood; a delicate club-spur orchid (Platanthera clavellata), also known as the small green wood orchid; downy rattlesnake plantain (Goodyera pubescens), a widespread orchid of both dry and mesic habitats in the canyon; a gorgeous orange-fringed orchid (Platanthera ciliaris), also known as yellow-fringed orchid, although in these parts the flowers are as bright and showy as a navel orange; and last but not least the magical white spires of black cohosh (Actaea racemosa), which in the soft evening light of the forest readily evoke their common name, fairy candles.
