Last Friday my class and I went toe the trail near our school to examine many forms of fungi. During the Fungi trip, I encountered many forms of fungi such as the club fungi which consists of rusts, toadstools, puffballs, bracket fungus, and jelly fungus. The pictures below are not the identical ones that i encountered at school but are a visual example of what i saw. The purpose of this trip was to expose our class the abundance of fungi in the forest. At first i thought that i wouldn't find a single form of fungi but it turns out i was wrong. Every Tree, and every leaf had some kind of fungi growing on it and i found this to be really cool. What i learned in class was that Fungi spores could grow anywhere as long as the conditions are right. This is true in the forest because it is both warm and moist normally and those are the conditions that are needed to grow fungi. Overall this experience was pretty interesting and refreshing.
