Today I have a presentation about a teensy-tiny little fungus called Cannonball Fungus, that I found a few days ago. It was very fascinating to me, but wasn't sure it was interesting enough to share. However, yesterday I was out with the dogs and studying a few logs along the way. I noticed some very tiny things growing, and when I was nearly eyeball close, I was amazed to find tiny jelly globes (the cannonballs!) resting on the interesting orange star-shaped fungus I found the other day. It was too late to take pictures so I went out first thing today, hoping they were still there...which I'm happy to say, they were! :)

After I got my pictures, I looked up and noticed that there were droplets of water clinging to everything around me! It had rained all night and the world was dripping wet. Just a foot away, I saw this blade of grass fairly bristling with droplets, and thought it would be fun to try taking some flash images of it. When I looked at the images on my computer, I was delighted to see that this one showed clear refractions of the White Oak leaves scattered on the ground below! There are even tiny droplets on larger droplets, totally crazy! :)
