Been a while!! Started off the walk with some cute inkcaps :3
Some old brown shroom idk... I loved the scales!
Slimy little turkey tails >:3 They were super floppy from the rain.
Coral fungus! We saw a ton of this on the hike, one of the highlights for sure! :3
Sweet lil pink guys...
Bird's Nest fungus! I've never seen it before with closed veils, caught it at just the right time.
Lots of these little yellow guys too...
A close up on 'em!
Soggy old... oysters? IDK I wasn't gonna eat em.
And finally some sweet little boletes!
Definitely the coolest thing we saw: a Northwestern Garter Snake!! Soo cute, lookit her little head!!!
Bonus banana slug: we saw about 2 trillion of these...
