Good evening everyone, welcome back to this beloved community.

On this occasion, I would like to share some images with you of mushrooms I found while on a plantation.

My friends...
Fungi are a kingdom that is neither plant nor animal, but they live independently and play an important role in nature.

Okay, friends, keep following my blog this time because below I will share some images along with a short article from me.

If you have followed my blog a few blogs ago, I have said that the weather in my area has been unpredictable for the past few days, but today the weather is very sunny, which you can all see in the picture that I have shared above, where at that time the sky looked very clear and there were no clouds at all, even at that time when I looked at my cell phone the temperature reached 33 degrees Celsius.

At that time, I went into the plantation to see what I could find. Shortly after searching, I discovered a mushroom that grew in groups.

After researching, I discovered the mushroom was called Parasola auricoma, a species of agaric mushroom.

When I first saw it, I was immediately drawn to capture some images because of its small size and its group-like behavior, with each group consisting of about 5 to 10 identical mushrooms.

This small, umbrella-shaped mushroom, which I found growing in grass, is also quite common. I've also encountered this mushroom growing on wood chips that crumble over time, growing to about 6 cm in size.

Like most mushrooms, this mushroom obtains nutrition by breaking down organic matter into simpler molecules. Fruiting bodies grow singly or in clusters, often in large numbers on roadsides or in grassy areas, as I found it.

This mushroom also has a relatively short lifespan, typically lasting only a few hours before dying.

As I mentioned above, due to the beautiful weather, I took some pictures of my plantation. I personally found the beauty so enjoyable.
Here are some of the pictures. I hope they can convey the atmosphere of my plantation to all of you in this community.

Okay, friends, those are some pictures and a short post from me on this blog. I hope you all enjoyed it and enjoyed it. See you in my next blog in this beloved community.
