Fungi Friday - Amanita Muscaria

in FungiFriday3 years ago

Hi Mushroom lovers, I hope you ave a great day!

This is a pretty common mushroom in the Netherlands, but also one that speaks to imagination. It is one of the mushrooms people like photographing the most. It's distinct red color and white dots makes it easily stand out between all other mushrooms.

Without knowing a lot about mushrooms, it must be obvious the colors of this mushroom should be interpreted as a warning. Red = Danger. And indeed this mushroom is toxic.

While searching the internet about this iconic "Mario Mushroom" I came across an interesting article describing its folklore and psychedelic aspects.

I would definitely not recommend trying any of this, but I found it an interesting read.

I hope you like my contribution to #FungiFriday by @ewkaw for this weeks Fungi Friday.

Sort:  

The red is so vibrant I can believe it but I must. A perfect example, I wonder if it makes you grow like Mario? I'm not trying it out 😀
!PIZZA

Haha. I wonder too! Maybe only your imagination will grow. 😉 Thanks for passing by and thanks for the pizza! 😀🙏

Great shot of this iconic mushroom. 🍄😉
It is “The subject” in your photo, and shows its best qualities.

Really a coincidence… like you said.

Thank you very much! 😀🙏

You are welcome 😉😊 let’s see what happens next #FungiFriday… I do must say, almost running out of Dutch fungi photographs.

I’m looking forward to it! I’m almost running out of them too. Hopefully I can find some more soon. 😉

O my… but you have more chance of finding them in the Netherlands 🤣😄 here in the south of Spain… they are all gone.
As @mipiano said…. Aliens took them all hahahaha

Haha, at least those aliens brought you some better temperatures in return. 😉

Yep they did 😋☀️☀️☀️😁

:D they did!!

well, I see , not from other corners of the world :)

We must have special ones here in Spain that they take them all…. 😉

It's so pretty it looks fake :D

Haha, thank you! 😀🙏

Wow! Just a mushroom... Great photo.

Thank you very much!😀🙏

In my mushroom hunting, I have never seen such a beautiful mushroom.
As you show

Thank you! They’re quite common in the northern parts of Europe. I’m not sure about other places in the world.

In the Aceh area there are no mushrooms as you show and it looks very cool..
Why don't you show more pictures, I'm sure a lot of people will see the beauty of it.

I could only find one, I have a few images from last years. I’ll share more of them soon. 😀👍

I can't wait to see it...

Extraordinary. The mushroom picture you shared was a cool day. With very tempting colors. Thank you very much for sharing

Thank you very much for appreciating it and stopping by! 😀🙏

You'r welcome brothers 😊😊
