Return to Fly Agaric

I retruned to the exact same Amanita Muscaria that I blogged and blipped about a few days ago here. Since then I have been reading up on their development and it seems they travel from their beginning to their end in a very short period of time. That was enough to take me back into the forest today. This time I stepped into a ditch in the process getting my walking boots wet through and even my socks. But it was worth it!

I found several more clumps of mushrooms by venturing further into the forest and it seems the mushrooms prefer the spots where the sun can managed to get through the thick foliage and shed its light down on the forest floor. As you can see it was another sunny day, but oh boy, it's certainly getting colder here in the Scottish Borders!
