Arizona’s monsoon rains in the mountains produce a summer crop of mushrooms, toadstools, slime molds and other delights. Here are a few that have appeared already this 2014 season. I don’t know enough about fungi to attempt to identify them for you. Experts can determine if any are safe to eat, but many are deadly poison. Squirrels seem to eat some of them but I don’t know that is an indicator of human tolerance.I think they are fascinating to find.
Love the colours! ❤ Have a beautiful day.

Thanks, it’s surprising how colorful they are.
I love fungi, fascinating things and a sign of a healthy ecosystem.
So varied, and so strange! Growing up we learned fungi were plants, now I understand they have their own Kingdom😃
