Mushroom Anatomy 101

I dearly love finding dandelions in my garden, whether they are the yellow flowers or the soft puffs of seeds ready to take to the wind. Generally I leave the dandelion there (unless I am removing weeds, and then I say goodbye to my little friends). However, this one time I decided to break the dandelion puff off of the stem to take inside the house for a photo session. The moment I removed the puff, the bottom of the stem curled into these two tightly wound circles. What a treat!
I was delighted to get my first sighting of this rare remarkably cryptic member of the heron family in the reedbeds at London Wetland Centre on Sunday.
The Bittern is marked just like a winter reedbed and standing stock still it melted into the background of reed stems wonderfully. This rather hunched up posture was one of several different poses adopted as the action unfolded.
Thank you all for your kind responses.

I have been thinking lately that I need to take some wider angle photos and it is difficult when I enjoy the world close up and macro. My next goal should be wide lens work of people and places.
The small white flowers that bloom in spikes in early spring, the crimson new shoots, and the dark green leaves of this plants are beautiful, but the leaves and stems contain toxic substances. So, many animals avoid eating these poisonous plants, the trees can grow in conspicuous abundance.
早春に穂になって咲く小さな白い花や、紅色の新芽, 濃い緑色の葉が美しいアセビですが, 葉や茎には有毒のアセトポキシン(グラヤノトキシン）が含まれているため, 馬が食べると毒にあたって酔ったようにふらふらとした足取りになることから,漢名で馬酔木と書かれるようになったとされます。
ここ天城では大半の馬酔木は花が咲かないです。雌雄同株なのか雌雄異株なのか不詳です。どなたか詳しいお方が居られましたら, 御教示お願いします👍

Cuttings from a Kalanchoe Blossfeldiana plant. It has been in the family for a long time, reincarnated by means of stem and leaf cuttings. The common name is Flaming Katy.

A mystery arrival in the garden this year, and in two different locations and colour forms. No idea how they managed to get there either. Ordinarily, birds might be considered the normal culprit but, according to what I've read, birds don't particularly care for them. The name stems from the rather unpleasant aroma when the leaves are bruised or crushed.

When I buy a pumpkin I always try to find one with an interesting stem. I liked this one it seems to have a life of its own.
Compass plant is one of the iconic wildflowers on the tallgrass prairie. The tips of its leaves invariably point north and south and were used in past times as navigation aids by early explorers on the vast trackless prairie. The sap produced when a compass plant stem is broken makes a surprisingly good chewing gum if it is left to coagulate and harden.
I was out early one morning with only the big lens, looking for wildlife. No luck there, but I was very glad I noticed this frost on these red stems. I don't know what the plant is. I've been bringing my macro lens every day since, but frost this nice doesn't happen very often. Siskiyou County, California
Macro Mondays and the theme of "Glass" and I decided on using a wine glass to show light refraction through the stem of the glass.
I had this idea while using the glass for it's intended purpose.
after first trying to photograph the name of the wine through the stem and not liking the result I thought about making it a colour oriented shot and used the coloured stripey bag that I used in a recent Macro Mondays effort.
12 - 24mm wide angle lens used near to the stem to give that long stem effect.
This flower was just taken from a vase of flowers and held up to the sky for the shot.
Just a quick sharpen and contrast boost added and a little lens flare just for effect !
