In My Backyard

This evening Pepper barked to be let inside, but when I opened the gate, she gave me that look that said she wanted me to come out.

You know the look. So I followed her.

I followed her to the woodpile. Where she barked at something lurking in there and then wandered off.

And while she walked the perimeter of the fence,  I noticed mushrooms on the log pile.

And went back inside to get my camera. Because really, are these not amazing things to be growing in my backyard?

I'll show you the color pictures in a minute. Be patient. But the black and white here makes me happy. They're so delicate.

Reflection of a puddle of water. In a mushroom.

My goodness.

And now for the color pics.

I like the hint of light orangey goop on this one. 

More light orange and the white against the bark.

We've had things growing in our refrigerator multiple times that look like this one. 

I like the blurry green of our mini suburban-style forest.

And the mushroom lake reflection with a hint of color.
