There are many reasons that I love fungi.

I have featured them many times on this blog.

When one sees mushrooms, brackets and their kin

we know that something is dead or dying.

Beauty in death?  Yes.

Everything must die.

Fungi takes the valuable organic molecules and recycles them back

to a usable form.

Decomposition is a renewing process.

I think these weeping conks are beautiful.

The dying tree is all ready sharing the wealth it harvested from the sun

during its growing years.

Giving back to its neighbors as it declines.

Beautiful isn’t it?
