Somthing rotten in the State of Queensland

Well, rotting more than rotten.

Fungi are very important in the breakdown of all sorts of living, dead and even nonliving parts of the environment to make nutrients available. The late wet season is a wonderful time on land west of the Great Barrier Reef and the colours are as varied. Here are some from my garden in Yungaburra.

Have a look at Faunal Fungi Feast from October 08 for more photos of fungi. The stinkhorns are out now too.
