Alder, Coast Redwoods and Sitka Spruce make up the trees of Humboldt’s Community Forest. Here, a short stemmed Russula, some sulfur caps, orange jelly (mislabeled above), and some very tiny decomposers #FungiFriends 🍄📸

Some orange jelly spot? A lovely partial veil hanging off a cap and a Lycoperdon umbrinum, Umber-brown puffball. Until a few years ago this forest was logged consistently, so there are no old trees and it is dense with little understory. It’ll take many decades to rebuild. #FungiFriends 🍄📸

Marasmiellus candidus, aka Fairy parachutes, much larger than I usually see them. Second, Lepiota atrodisca, which were all over in many sizes, and some others I didn’t ID. #FungiFriends 🍄📸

I found a few crab spiders yesterday waiting for their meals to fly in.

Forgot there’s a golden crab spider in the second picture - waiting for breakfast to arrive.

Gravel pile big, smaller, finished. #trails #hiking #humboldt
