Check out this mushroom covered pinecone dramatically emerge from the forest floor in this stop-motion animation. #Fungi #Moss #Animation #Mushroom #TinyMushrooms #Nature

I believe these are Strobilurus trullisatus growing on a Douglas fir cone. #Fungi #Cone #Moss #TinyMushrooms
The trail was littered with groupings of these tiny little mushrooms usually with the cone fully buried with only a cluster of tiny white mushrooms poking through the moss.

A grouping of 7 fruting bodies with a tan color cap that appears to darken toward the tip. They are all seen emerging from a single cone and appear in varying stages of growth with a few newly emerging ones and a few older ones with their caps folding indicating they are drying out. A single shot with longer exposure time of 1/13 sec and f/11. The closest mushroom is a little more out of focus that I was hoping but I didn't have my tripod with me and this was the best I could get with what I was working with at the angle I wanted.
