For those not in the know, this is one of the Amanita #mushrooms referred to as a Destroying Angel. Never, ever, ever, ever #forage with an #app. Especially for mushrooms.
Tired of insta and etsy, starting my mastodon journey today!
So let me do an #introduction post. I make ceramics and porcelain in a small studio in Berlin.
Sometimes practical, but mostly experimenting with the artistic side.
German and English are not my native, so expect me to translate a lot.
Monday morning trail run had an unexpected "private land" sign half mile down one of the trails. Never fear, I've been practicing bushwhacking for years! #TrailRunning#mushrooms#salamander#bear
These wonderful little Q-tip sprouty things are Swamp Beacon [Mitrula elegans] mushrooms, and up until yesterday I had never found one. In fact they aren’t listed in many of my guides or fungi websites I visit. They mostly grow on fallen conifer needles IN BOGS… so you can see why they don’t get a lot of press!
