July Fungi

Mushroom Study
Copyright Julie Vaux 2014

With all the rain we've been getting there's going to be plenty of opportunities to photograph mushrooms and fungi. Just don't pick them to eat and no shroom jokes.

This is me doing the wabi sabi thing again. The beauty of simple things and the contrast between the green and the shapes and colors of the mushrooms.

SAN BIRDS

With a wide variety of food available the grounds of the SAN hospital are a great environment for magpies lorikeets and other birds especially near the Fox Valley road bus stop where the birds love to check up and see if any bored humans are snacking while waiting for the next bus.
