I had never seen this kind before. Some more shots below....
This is the same stump as the sprouting Mycelium.
Here is the same mushroom from my last post but 3 days later and photographed from the other side....
Mushrooms are the reproductive organs, after all…
Nvm. These are wooly oak galls. I tried deleting the post, but Jerboa won’t let me. Mods, you can remove if you want.
Xylaria hypoxylon and some organe slime mold?...
Does anyone have any idea what this is?...
Would anyone happen to know this one?
Thought I would share this here, as it is so beautifully done and so useful....
Seen many puffballs in this area, but never like this. Today they were everywhere. https://mander.xyz/pictrs/image/418b22fb-24f0-4a7f-9f9b-1432ce55ca9f.jpeg
There is a ton of anecdotal evidence on the interwebs about the photosensitivity of fungi, ie, it governs the direction of pin growth, fruit colors, etc. suggesting a circadian rhythm of sorts....
Went on a trip to Northern Wisconsin last week and must have seen 8 different species of mushrooms on a single hike! Let me know if you’d like me to post some others :)...

Quite new to foraging, how come these mushrooms grow in a circle?
Unfortunately this was the best I could do; it was incredibly tiny. I think it was about 1 cm in length. Upper Peninsula of Michigan on some moss at the base of a mature white pine tree. Hopefully that information helps; I know some fungi and molds can be quite particular.
Been wanting to get my hands on one of these for a long time....
I'm in a new place this year and have only been finding puffballs. This was pretty exciting.
This was a good chunk of the chickenfat, but the rest were more spread out....
