Fungus Hunt !

Last week in biology class we were learning about fungi, and what better way to learn and understand the lesions better than seeing examples of them in person? So our teacher took us to the forest just outside our school, and gave us time to explore in partners. My partner and I found many different types of fungi around the forest. We found different types Lichen (Crusticose&Foliose) as well as many different types of Mushroom (shelf,club). We found lots of self mushrooms growing on a tress in many groups and individually as well. Our environment is very moist which i believe helped a lot of these different types of fungi grow. There was lots of moss on trees, tree branches, rocks everywhere ! From this walk in nature, i learned more about funji, i got to see different types of funji, how they look, the structure. It was fun !

This is a picture of Shelf, and what could be protist fungi we found in the forest. As you can see, the fungi is growing all over the tree, in groups, individually.

This is a close up of the shelf fungi growing on the tree. 

 This picture here, is a picture of mushrooms, you cant see it very well due to the angle the photo was taken.

This is some more mushrooms growing on a broken tree branch.
You cant see them as well, but they were dark and very moist

This is another picture of more mushrooms growing on the tree branch. There are different sizes, shapes, colors. 

This is basidiomycota fungi growing on the end of the broken tree. Its a orange color, with a light yellow border, and it was very wavy, but well attached to the log.

This is shelf fungi growing on the bottom, end part of a broken tree. It was very big, white, it looked like a oyster in some ways. It looked very rough. 

This is Crustose Lichen
