Bleeding bonnet fungus growing from holes in a rotting log. Malcolm Knapp Research Forest, Maple Ridge, British Columbia. If you zoom in you can see various little critters in, on and under the caps. #fungi #fungifriends #mycology #naturephotography #macrophotography 🌿
One large mushroom grows from a hole in a log. From another hole a clump of four mushrooms grow. There are small white mites on and around the mushrooms and a larger bug partly visible under one cap.

Thank goodness for late blooming flowers. Both for fueling the pollinators and because they make me smile #invertebrates 🐝 🌿#BloomScrolling

This girl was collected a few weeks ago in Central Florida. I began collecting and keeping these Phidippus regius in 2003. It's been a few years since I kept this species, and it's impressive how much larger she is compared to my other jumpers. 🌿 #inverts #spiders #bugsky #arachtober

One coyote snarls at another one which rears back with a look of 'dude! chill!' against the backdrop of limestone cliffs. A black-billed magpie ignores the scene.

Found this Phidippus clarus adult male guarding this penultimate female in Central Florida last month. This fall-maturing species can be found in wet habitats throughout Florida. The females make conspicuous egg sacs near the tops of shrubs and on seedheads of forbs. 🌿 #spiders #inverts #arachtober

We’re off to the desert. I took this shot in the remote south end of Anza Borrego Desert State Park. The tall cactus is an endemic to eastern San Diego County called a Mason Valley Cholla and it can grow from 9 to 10 feet high. 🌿✌🏻

Every several years I like to repost this observation on social media in case new eyeballs can help with an identification. My silly guess is that beetle larvae have excavated galleries below the bark and that changes what can grow on the surface. 🌿 #inaturalist www.inaturalist.org/obser….
