Puffball mushrooms

Scary stuff

[Little My]

Right?!

I'm watching it grow.

Please can you put objects next to it for scale?

I've got a Facebook foragaing friend who regularly posts pictures of fried puffball. She's not dead yet. Still. Remember what happened to that chap who wrote the horse book.

Nicholas Evans, who wrote The Horse Whisperer, to be slightly less madly cryptic.

Oh my god !!

The Guardian had another tale of mushroom woe that I’ve read before. Here:

That is awful! Near death by mushroom!

I took a pic earlier, with a regular sized pen. Not quite the size of a sheep - yet.

I LOVE IT .

And I bought myself two packs of those exact pens recently . My family always wander off with my pens .

Mr LM broke the clicker on two of those pens!

Final update: I did NOT eat the mushroom. There was a huge amount of rainfall, and the mushroom grew a bit more but also darkened quite a bit:

So I kicked it over! Eww, definitely no appetizing:

And then Mr LM mowed it, and he said the whole thing was black inside. Then end.
