Midwinter on the Fleurieu’s southern edge: monster mushroom

 

Even collectively, yesterday’s three heroes were comprehensively dwarfed by any single one of the adjacent, large leaves.

This post’s mushroom is enormously bigger and heavier.

My unscientific guesstimate is that its mass would exceed that of all three of yesterday’s ‘shrooms by at least several thousand percent.

This post’s hero was, I think, the biggest individual fungal fruiting body we saw on 20 June 2023.

It was not the most astonishing one.
