I offered up a certificate for a naturalist-led walk as an auction item at one of my fundraisers, and the winners redeemed it last Sunday. They were a couple of old friends who live in Allston, and we walked around their neighborhood and found lots of cool things. I was (as usual) so focused on finding things and talking that I didn't take many photos. These polypore mushrooms growing through a chain link fence reminded me to get the camera out!
We also found Fuligo septica, my old friend the
dog vomit slime mold, crawling up a patch of grass.
