Parasol fungi are so incredibly cute and tiny.
This was my last walk in our forest. I cannot believe it has been 11 days since I was able to go for a hike.
The rains and humidity ought to be a real boon to the world of slime molds and mushrooms.

...Says the tiny bee to the much disdained flower of suburban lawns.
However I found our dandys full of action yesterday.

Today seemed to stretch forever; it started early on and continued late into the evening.
Not saying that it was a bad day, just a long day. It was actually a pretty good day over all.
I called Rogers, my wireless provided and got through without being placed on hold, a rare and unusual occurance.
After that I called the Keurig customer support to complain about how my coffee has been tasting a little off lately and went through a bunch of steps to try and fix it. In the end, the woman decided just to send a new machine. It was amazing to have such a wonderful and helpful experience with a customer support line. Seriously, I cannot stress just how impressed I am with Keurig today.
Afterwards, my parents, my brother, his lady love, and Nard came over for a BBQ, which was fantastic. It's nice to have my brother and his girlfriend in town visiting and it was great to see them so early into the visit. And I get to see them again tomorrow morning for brunch at my parent's place!
Hope everyone has had a great day.

This little Sweat Bee made such a wonderful start to the morning. Was lying in a puddle, just shooting orchids, when I seen slight movement.
I had this in my backpack so used this for a perspective on size. I normally carry a dime, but it has been SO long since we've had the good weather for great fungi and slime molds.
They found mysterious remains from a long forgotten past.
A photograph of a scene made by using H0 1:87 scale figures. The scene shows a very large dragon skull still half buried in the sand being excavated by various large excavation vehicles. On the skull it self multiple tiny people are using construction equipment trying to open-up, break in and or examine the skull.
I think these are.....
Scutellinia erinaceus
They were so tiny I thought they were weird tiny orange bubbles, so I used the super macro setting on the Tough Camera.
I was surprised by the hairs that looked like eyelashes!
I was luck enough to find these different stages of growth for Chocolate Tube Slime Mold on three different logs in our woods.
The smell of earth after the rain.
There is a magical world on the forest floor that gets ignored by those who walk through it.
I literally lost track of time exploring this small section of the forest on the creek bank.
Says and Ant!
I waited a very long time for this ant to bring up its head, but it was too busy for me.

After obtaining some very encouraging results with the Raynox DCR-250 combined with my Sony Handycam HDR-CX730E I decided to up the ante and invested in an even more powerful macro conversion lens, the Raynox MSN-202. You need to be a lot closer than with the DCR-250, about 3cm for the MSN-202 compared to 8-10 cm for the DCR-250, but once again, I've been bowled over by the quality of the output from this combination.
You can get an idea from the uploaded clip here, but this stuff even holds up on my 42" plasma!
The wonderful thing about mega macro is that there are things to film and photograph everywhere.
I've so far resisted the temptation to add voice-overs as I did with the kingfisher diaries, as I haven't got a clue what I'm talking about.
Helen has told me she is commandeering the video rig tomorrow if we get favourable weather, she's never used a video camera before, so who knows what she might come up with!

50 days into 365!!
I searched all over the place for these little deer. I finally decided I just needed to buy them online. Aren't they just the cutest little cupcake toppers?
Taking pictures of fungi is , opening your eyes to a tiny world at times, these were just visible to the naked eye, but the tiniest of them were invisible till i looked at the screen.
I am obsessed with tiny things, and it turns out my kiddos love them too! My two-year-old daughter and I organized our little treasure chest of "tiny things" by color, then placed them in rainbow order in sort of a wonky oval shape. Turns out the hole in the middle was perfectly Blythe-sized!
Ryan was happy to lounge and revel in the tiny things... she loves them too!
