It's been very dry here, however these have all appeared.. Nothing on the woodland floor, all on old wood, moss or trees.

A toadstool a friend and I happened upon in the Dublin mountains. It was by itself beside a small pool of water.
Yesterday my husband and I saw three of these extraordinary toadstools. We couldn't find any photos of them on the internet, so we don't know the name of these toadstools. Does anyone of you know?
update 14/02: apparently this is the final stage of a pestle puffball (handkea or calvatia excipuliformis).

how cute are these little mushrooms (or toadstools) on this pillow? i drew and digitized them then sent them to my fab bernina to stitch out on linen. i just love old fashioned redwork. this is currently listed in my etsy shop.
Still not really in focus, but I left this picture of my Toadstool Leather in because you can see how well it is doing in just a couple of months. Notice the longer, more developed polyps.
I can't remember what these are though I did look them up when I got home. They look really tasty but it's a minefield isn't it?
Please view large........While looking for something interesting to snap in the garden, I spotted these miniture toadstools growing in the lawn. I layed down to photograph one...they are very fragile and this one has broken at the top of the stalk letting light in.

A fudge-grey toadstool growing amongst Beech litter below Beech at Toxside, Midlothian. The cap has a fibrous surface, flesh somewhat brittle, no ring on stipe.
The photomicrographs show:
Top: Hyphae in Congo Red showing clamp connections.
Middle: Elongate basidiospores with conspicuous apiculus. Prepared in Meltzer's Reagent - reaction negative.
Bottom: Spores in Meltzer's and illuminated using oblique transmitted light.
Hoodoos are a column or pillar of bizarre shape caused by differential erosion on rocks of different hardness. In the southwest they can often be found with a capstone balanced upon their peak.
