Mushrooms in the City

I love walking around after a good few days of rain--that's when all the mushrooms come out. Today's find was especially rewarding, because I came across some stinkhorns (Clathrus ruber) today! I've only seen these kinds in books and pictures, never up close and in the flesh. I'm excited to start up mushroom-spotting again.
