  1. Common Puffballs growing in the rough gavel at the edge of a forest track in Northumberland. Lovely looking things. Quite tasty apparently, but I NEVER eat wild fungi. #Puffball #Fugus #Fungi #Nature #NaturePhotography

  2. Common Puffballs (Lycoperdon perlatum) on the forest floor. While I enjoyed kicking them as a child, to see them eject their spores, I didn't know just how pretty they looked up close 😍
    County Clare, Ireland.

  3. A couple Giant Puffballs recently found alongside the road. I cracked one open slightly and it still looked nice and white inside.

    A mind boggling fact

    The giant #puffball produces more spores than there are known stars in the universe.

  10. Having a ball this weekend?

    Here’s another ball to occupy your time: the giant puffball! This fungus sits on lawns & meadows, absorbing nutrients from the soil. Its trillions of tiny spores emerge as a puff of "smoke" when the mushroom is disturbed.

  11. Was caretaking a neighbors chickens several years ago and came across this Giant Puffball. Had a gallon water jug in tow, used it as a size reference. Amazing how fast they can spring up to this size.

  12. What happens after a puffball releases all of it spores? With most puffballs the outer layer (peridium) is frail enough that the whole puffball just sort of collapses. But with thicker-rinded species like this Pigskin Poison Puffball, the layer can peel back leaving behind a cool looking lace-edged crater.

  13. He thought fast!
    This one was a tough one for me, all cause of the background.

  14. Decided to try #Inktober out, haven't drawn in a while, but I still don't care.
    POV is Yujin and he's reaching out to that purple puff.

  15. I’ve been processing the giant puffball mushroom since yesterday. I’m not going to bother making powder. I’m just busting the dried pieces up into smaller pieces. They can be added to soups and stews and such. The ones I dried in the oven are a darker colour because they were dried at a higher heat than the ones in my dehydrator. #PuffballMushroom #puffball #forager #FoodPreservation #Dehydration #mushroom #KitchenWitch

  20. I went hiking with @Knightky in the woods near Guelph. I saw something glowing white and round as a redhead’s untanned arse. I got soooo excited. This is the biggest puffball I’ve ever found, and a definite highlight to my week. #foraging #Forager #mushroom #Puffball #PuffballMushroom #fungus #EdibleMushrooms

  25. #December 11, 1992
    #OTD #California newspapers reported that #Botanists discovered a new #Plant.

    The plant is #Native to the area around #Lake #Shasta. A member of the #Rose #Family, it has the charming common name Shasta #Snow #Wreath.

    One of California's rarest #Plants, the #Beautiful #Blossom lasts 10 days in the #Spring. It looks like a white spikey #Puffball made up of a cluster of #Stamens rather than #Petals.

    Today there are roughly 20 clusters of Shasta Snow-Wreath in California.
