Fabulous fall fungi

Ok, I'm rather cheating here, these pictures were actually taken last year, but the rain has been falling heavily all day here in North Vancouver, and we need reasons to be thankful for this time of year.  Well, I can tell you that the climate here sure gets things growing, especially those things that love the insistent dampness of our autumn months, think moss, think fungi.  I have always found fungi fascinating, and one of the pleasures of the rainy season here is coming across many weird and wonderful fungal growths on walks.  We'll save our walks until the heavy rain has abated, but we know that the conditions are right and we'll soon see little shrooms springing up all over the place.
