Tiny (4-5mm Tall) Mushrooms with Blue-Green Fungus on a Twig
2 pictures above in notes! :)
When I was looking at the different mushrooms, I initially tried to pull this twig away from the pair until I realized that they were growing on it! Then I was happy because I had a handle to hold them with! It is a very stressful experience trying to hold something so tiny with your fingers--it's very hard to have any control! If you can believe it, these two are only about 4-5mm in height! (To understand what that looks like, do you see my picture icon on the right of this image? They are SMALLER than that icon!!) And yet, they are still larger than the "3 Amigos" I photographed a couple of weeks ago (see inset) , but nevertheless, they are very, very, VERY small!! (By the way, I added some light texturing to the background to give this image more depth)
By the way, I have a friend, Ken Dies who's very experienced with mushrooms, and he explained that these mushrooms are not actually blue or green. They have been attacked by a fungus, which gives them that color! Thanks for the information, Ken! :)
