There has been SO MUCH RAIN this spring and, officially as of yesterday, this summer! As a result, there are fungi popping up all over the place. This tiny and curious orange stuff is growing prettily on the Ladder to Nowhere* that is propped against the back porch roof. Fritz and Hamilton sometimes climb that ladder and prowl around on the little roof (seeking birds to eat, no doubt). The first photo is from this morning around 8 a.m.; I took the for-scale photo w/finger this evening, probably twelve or more hours later; you can see how shriveled and dried the fungus has become in that time.
I love love love all this rain EXCEPT FOR not being able to take the camera out in it, and for the dullness and lack of light it provides in some photos. (I like to think it's the weather rather than my bad picture-taking, of course.)
*It is a Ladder to Nowhere for humans, not cats, because the porch roof is so utterly unsupported that it would be a very bad idea indeed to try to be on it.
