Conventioneers

My lawn is hosting a mushroom convention...


These guys were probably part of some Goth movement....

These provided the comic relief. They were trying to see how many mushrooms could grow in the same spot... Most got a bit bent out of shape from the crowding....



These could be the sergants at arms--very orderly....



This puffball was shy, lingering out of sight of the others....





You first... No, you first....




Then there was this handsome devil.... Had all the girl mushrooms drooling....



















Did I mention? Standing room only.....



There are over 500 varieties of mushrooms in Alaska, and many of them look almost identical so it's hard to know the good twin from the evil twin. The puffball is the only one I know for sure.

This guy, however attractive he might be, is bad news. He wasn't invited....
