October 1, 2024,Kuriose Pilze: Kandel Bienwald-Brunnenweg

It's mushroom time again. I made lots of discoveries on the Bienwald fountain trail. Volcanoes, hedgehogs, gatherings,... Very small and large mushrooms. What a variety. Unfortunately not much sun. But an interesting cloud formation against a blue sky. At the end there was a lonely daisy on a large green meadow. How diverse nature is!
