Fungus Friday

Happy Friday!! Is there something exciting going on in your world right now? We here at Woodland Whimsy are looking forward to relocating. We will be moving north, to a land of big trees, big water, and awesome fungus.

This handsome couple was spotted in the dormant huckleberry patch below my in laws’ house. I love how they look like they are taking a little stroll in the woods.

Fungus Friday

Happy Friday the 13th! Do you worry that today is an unlucky day? Do you think it is a lucky day? Do you not care either way? How ever you feel about today, I hope that you enjoy today’s fungus.

I think this guy had to work pretty hard to push himself up through the mulch that coats the forest floor.

A New Creature

A new creature has appeared from the lake here at Woodland Whimsy. She is cute as can be.

Initially, she was very shy and tried to hide. With a bit of patience, she soon decided that we were all right to talk to.

“Hi, my name is Betty. I am a squoozle. There are a lot of us living in the lake, but we are all shy.”  I assured Betty that it was safe for her friends if they wanted to come out.

“I will take to them and see what they say. I’m not sure that they are ready to meet new being though.” confided Betty. Then she headed back down toward the lake and into the water. I hope that we all get a chance to meet some more squoozles. Betty was a very charming creature.

Fungus Friday

Happy Friday!! I have a very busy day planned today, but my weekend is looking pretty quiet. I’m hoping to get some more work done on the works in progress that I showed you earlier in the week. I have one of them almost finished.

These little shelf fungi were tucked on the lower side of a fallen log. They look ready for a fairy musical group to come and use them for a stage as they play.

Work in Progress

I have some items in progress that I thought I would share with you. Hopefully I will be able to show them to you finished by week’s end. None of them have told me their names yet. I sure hope they start speaking soon.

This is my latest boggling. Don’t tell any of the other creatures, but I might like the bogglings the best.

This is a made to order gronk. He was auctioned off for a very good cause a couple of years ago. The person who won just found her paperwork and got in touch with me. He’ll be headed off to his new home soon.

This creature is completely new to Woodland Whimsy. We are anxiously awaiting to see what she will become.

I hope that you enjoyed a quick peek into what I am currently working. Please let me know what you think.

I love this little group of fall colored mushrooms. They are quite small and all coming up on top of each other.

Fungus Friday

Happy Friday! I am running a bit late with this post today, but I am getting it done.

This mushroom photo comes from my very own garden! I live in the desert. I rarely have mushrooms growing. This one is quite different from the others I get from time to time.
