The Red Mood on #FungiFriday

The red-hairy cup mushroom (Cookeina tricholoma ) is my favorite of all the mushrooms I've encountered. This beautiful mushroom has a red basidiocarp and a lot of furs. The largest of these mushrooms is shaped like a frying pan, and most of them are in the shape of a cup. However, occasionally you'll come across a mushroom that is in the shape of a heart or a love symbol. It's similar to finding nature's love in the middle of a still, dreary forest. The only thing on your mind at the time was how beautiful the creature in front of you was; you didn't even give a damn about the mosquitoes that were constantly biting your skin.

These red-hairy cups will brighten the mood on #FungiFriday. Cheers!

Thanks for stopping by. Such mushrooms occur in almost all of Indonesia's tropical rainforests. 🙂
