Remember the box elder tree that was recently trimmed …

After just a few weeks, the remaining part of the tree is now home to a delightfully diverse mushroom community. I have no idea of the names for the type(s) of mushrooms that are growing here. However, it appears there is a place for many different kinds – a new community.

There are some with domed tops …

Some with bumps  …

And some with flare …

 

All growing together … because nature naturally allows it. Wouldn’t it be nice if it were that simple for humans.

And this is what the mushrooms above look like today; the bottom one is laying on the ground and the red spiked ones have not become golden domes.

Thanks for reading!
