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.
These come out every spring on the rotting logs along the river. Taken along the Gunpowder River in Perry Hall, MD.

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.
Meadowood Recreation Area, VA I thought this looked like a perfect toadstool. I think there might be a leprechaun hiding under there somewhere!

Each Sunday on his way to and from church the priest, Father Constantine, had to negotiate 'Toadstool Woods', ducking and swerving along the way. In Tinymania, the fungi grow big, but the walk always reminded him that even though life is not always easy, beauty can be discovered in the harder parts of the journey if we can but look for it.
A couple of years ago I found an old piece of a tree stump. I placed it in my garden and it soon became colonised by moss and lichen and now these toadstools.

A colony of toadstools in the gutter of a small street where parking is in high demand !
Will they survive?
or are they being self-sacrificial because if / when they are run-over, their spores will very likely be trapped in the tyres & undercarriage of the car and thus the future generations of these toadstools will be carried far & wide ? Actually, that's probably how these came to be where they are ....
