Look at what I found during my gardening yesterday, hiding under a shrub. According to Wikipedia, it is a variety of 'Coprinus Comatus', a rather common mushroom it says. Well, I'm here to say this is not common in our area, and we should never take such beauty as common!

The beautiful patterns on it's cap just blew me away. It was rather large, and I called the insurance man and a few neighbors just to admire this beauty of God's handi-work. It's a good thing I did, because the frost that night 'melted' the cap as if it had never been there. I'm so glad I found it's hiding spot.
