One of the more unique mushrooms we see in the PNW is the Helvella, or elfin saddle. There are a few species here, but I believe this is H. vespertina

A tall and unique mushroom called the western black elfin saddle, or Helvella vespertina, grows with a slight lean to the left above the ground. Its stipe is long, maybe five to six inches, white, and has an unusual folded and wrinkly texture. The cap is black and also has a strange folded texture. It often grows into a saddle-like shape, but this one is more round with flared edges. 📷 Canon R5 Canon RF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM M, f/4, 1/5, ISO 400 Stack of 19 images 11/21/24 Olympia area, Washington

Looking like a California sunset, this gorgeous Hygrocybe was easy to spot against the dull and dark ground.

Rising from dark earth and tree duff, a beautiful tropical orange mushroom glows. Its stipe is smooth and changes from a nearly reddish-orange at its base to a yellow-orange near the cap. The cap follows the same color gradient. The yellow-orange is at the margins of its serrated cap, and the darker orange is at the top. Its surface is slightly reflective, bumpy, and wax-like. 📷 Canon R5 Canon RF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM M, f/4, 1/5, ISO 400 Stack of 37 images 11/21/24 Olympia area, Washington

Emerging from a dark crevice, this parrot mushroom was caught nicely by the dim light on a cold, overcast November morning

A parrot mushroom with a perfectly shaped cap and a smoothly bending stipe emerges from the darkness underneath the edge of a fallen cedar branch. Its stipe is dimly lit, yellow, shiny, and smooth. The cap, which is shiny and reflects the forest canopy above, is light green around the margins and fades to a beautiful forest green at the top. 📷 Canon R5 Canon RF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM M, f/4, 1/4, ISO 400 Stack of 18 images 11/21/24 Olympia area, Washington

Absolutely love the colors on Hygrocybe mushrooms. Not sure which species this is, but its pretty! I like the tiny transparent worm under its cap, too.

A beautiful, bright orange, and very tiny mushroom grows against out-of-focus, bluish-black and brown soil and cedar duff. This tiny mushroom barely stands an inch tall and is uniformly colored. Its stipe is smooth and is angled slightly to the right. Its cap is slightly roughly textured and is wet with rain. The edges of the cap are wavy and uneven. 📷 Canon R5 Canon RF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM M, f/3.5, 1/4, ISO 400 Stack of 42 images 11/21/24 Olympia area, Washington

No idea who this little golden guy is, but I love the color and the slightly transparent surface. It also looks nice and glowy in the light with its dark surroundings

A tiny gold-colored mushroom emerges from dark brown cedar duff. The base of its stipe is covered in fuzzy mycelium. Its stipe stands just over an inch tall. Being so young, its cap hasn't fully formed yet and looks like the tip of an arrow - flared at the edge and pointed at the top. Soft dark browns and grays swirl behind and around the mushroom. 📷 Canon R5 Canon RF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM M, f/2.8, 1/13, ISO 400 Stack of 20 images 11/21/24 Olympia area, Washington

Two unlikely friends, a parrot mushroom and a tiny guy (Mycena maybe?), join together on a cold November day near the Puget Sound in Washington

A beautiful yellow and green parrot mushroom, along with a tiny pink-striped and pinkish-white-capped mushroom, stands together on cold, wet, cedar-duff-covered ground. The parrot mushroom has a shiny, smooth yellow stipe. The cap is very uniformly shaped and a beautiful combination of light and darker green. Its wet surface reflects the canopy of trees covering the overcast sky above. The tiny pink mushroom leans against the stipe of the parrot mushroom, its cap disturbing the thin layer of slime that coats the parrot mushroom. 📷 Canon R5 Canon RF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM M, f/3.5, 1/2, ISO 400 Stack of 22 images 11/21/24 Olympia area, Washington

An unusually colored parrot mushroom appears to have had a rough time growing. A nibble from a slug is at least one of its struggles

A yellow and pinkish-orange parrot mushroom grows out of wet, dark brown ground. Its half-inch-tall stipe is yellow and has patches of a white substance on it (possibly mycelium or mold). Its cap is still half-connected to the stipe. The right side of the cap lifts away from the stipe but has been chewed by a slug. The cap is smooth, pinkish-orange, and very shiny from the layer of slime that coats it. 📷 Canon R5 Canon RF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM M, f/3.5, 1/3, ISO 400 Stack of 15 images 11/21/24 Olympia area, Washington

A favorite of mine, the cone tooth fungus (Auriscalpium vulgare) bends outward and grows off of a fallen fir tree cone against distant evergreen huckleberry

The beautiful cone tooth fungus, scientifically known as Auriscalpium vulgare, grows from a fallen fir cone. Its fuzzy brown stipe grows at an angle parallel to the ground before turning straight up for about an inch, leading to its toothy light brown cap. The cap is circular with slightly rough edges. Tiny light brown teeth, each about a millimeter long, hang down and are packed tightly together. The background is a solid emerald green color. 📷 Canon R5 Canon RF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM M, f/4, 1/5, ISO 400 Stack of 50 images 11/21/24 Olympia area, Washington

I took a quick break from posting as I worked on more mushroom photos so I can share more than parrot mushrooms 🙃 got some new content now, like droplet-covered beauties!

Four tiny, nearly transparent, white mushrooms grow off a stick with their bases close together. Their stipes and caps are covered in tiny water droplets. Their caps are very small, slightly broad, and cone-shaped. 📷 Canon R5 Canon RF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM M, f/5.6, 1/5, ISO 400 Stack of 19 images 11/21/24 Olympia area, Washington
