I think some of the residents thought I'd lost my marbles when I jumped out of the car and started taking pictures of them.

That's so true, Eliean! some of them are so very delicate.

These fungi come up in my lawn under my copper beech tree after heavy rain. They turn black in a couple of days.

After a couple of nights of heavy rain, these fungi have, once again, appeared under my copper beech tree.

... and here is where they have spread out into the lawn.

They last only a couple of days before turning black and dying down. I wonder if they are edible. Doubt it, though!
