[Monkey Orchid]

Thanks for the ideas, fairplay.

With fungus 1, the specimen on its own was taken from a second, more mature clump of what looked like the same fungus, growing about six inches away from the main clump I photographed. This specimen was obviously older and a bit dried out, hence the curling cap edges. There was no sign of a ring on it or on any other of the others.

With fungus 3, the log had not been turned over. I photographed it as I found it.
