Frilly Fungi

Really, how marvelous are the gills on a mushroom? So intricate...once again, we must hand it to Mother Nature!

This rather large specimen popped up in our front yard. I always take care to remove them immediately even though Tallulah Mae is not loose in the front (nor is she interested in eating mushrooms these days)--we had TWO visits to the doggy ER when she was a puppy after mushroom-eating incidents, so an abundance of caution is in order. Silly girl!
