Found my first Collared Earthstar fungi the other day (Geastrum triplex). The First Nation’s Blackfoot Confederacy called collared earthstars ka-ka-toos – meaning 'fallen stars' – and believed them to be indicators of supernatural events. . . . #earthstar #collaredearthstar #weirdfungi #fungiisfun #autumnismagic #mushroomhunter #fungiofinstagram #geastrumtriplex #lincolnshire #wildfungus #walkinginthewoods #fungiuk #weirdthings #earthball #foragingisfun #donteathis https://www.instagram.com/p/Clo8mRFr-SC/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I've been watching the collared earthstars growing behind my house again this year, and they're just now starting to open! I love these little guys, they're so weird.
