It makes me want to make love to it.

at the beginning, it reminds me mashed potatos that i wanna just eat it regardless of poison(if it has any)

[DeceasedCoob]

To my knowledge, the spores that the fungi release are brown. Please correct me if I'm wrong on this!

[neilbromhall]

@DeceasedCoob Yes, I think the mature spores are brown.

this kinda creeps me out lol

[harima500]

did you recorded this thing without removing the camera from that place

[neilbromhall]

@harima500 I built a woodland set in my studio. I had the camera attached to a tripod to keep the camera in the same position.

[neilbromhall]

@imwideup09 People also think that they look like daffodil bulbs and plant them in their garden.

I had no idea that such fascinating fungi are growing in our woodlands. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and hard work.

Very, very cool!

[neilbromhall]

I agree. Fungi are very varied and have fascinating ways of dispersing their spores.
