Formidable Fungus

Giant Fungus
(click on photo to enlarge)

I was out and about for a while today with camera in hand. While visiting Gardening Daughter, she said "you ought to see the mushrooms in the yard next door." What to my eyes and lens should appear but a whole chain of fungi the size of the one pictured above. Lest one should think that I, and my camera, exaggerate, please note the United States legal tender quarter dollar resting on the upper section of said fungus.



I'm sure there are larger examples of fungi elsewhere in blogdom, but these were the largest ones I've ever seen.

More, later.
