My anemone’s anemone

With bits of leaves and moss around its base, a sunset-colored mushroom emerges from wet and dark brown soil. Its stipe appears dry and waxy in texture. A tiny insect, a springtail, which slightly resembles a super small spider, clings to the right side of its stipe. The mostly red but slightly orange cap appears wet and shiny.

A gorgeous red Hygrocybe hangs out with its springtail friend in a mossy spot next to a trail

Lake Ruataniwha, peaceful and calm in the dim morning light.
The silence only broken by a few early ducks.
