Corcovado National Park

Daily Pic (Cup Fungus)

Let’s go foraging

It’s peak season for many kinds of mushrooms, but to find this unique species you’ll have to travel to someplace tropical. This cup fungus, cookeina, was photographed growing on the rainforest floor in Costa Rica’s Corcovado National Park. Like other fungi, it serves as a decomposer, helping to break down dead organic matter in the ecosystem. The pronounced cup shape aids in spore dispersal by causing raindrops to splash the mushroom’s spores out into the surrounding area, allowing the fungus to spread.

deviantArt profile for GµårÐïåñ on deviantArt

Facebook i have made a personal choice after their "name policy" witch hunt which repeats every 2 years it seems at the whim of the "bully mob" (even when they make you jump through hoops and verify you), to just quit it and be done with it, they are not worth my time. I don't need it, I don't miss it, in fact it has made my life more productive and void of gross hate, vitriol and drivel. To those who say they can't stay in touch if I am not on there, if you can't reach me because I am not on Facebook, then you are not trying AT ALL - therefore, good riddance.
