So I won't even try to name all this stuff painting the Mojave Desert floor above 3500', but the colors sure look a lot like the colors we found 4,000 feet higher up on Aspen Peak. If you were expecting more view shots...tough.

A cluster of large, golden-brown mushrooms growing in bright sunlight among green grass and dry fallen leaves. The mushroomsโ€™ rounded caps appear slightly glossy, surrounded by curling brown leaves scattered on the ground.

The mushrooms shown here appear to be Suillus, a genus of boletes often called โ€œslippery jacksโ€ or โ€œsticky buns.โ€

They have symbiotic relationships with pine trees ๐ŸŒฒ

Common species include Suillus luteus (Slippery Jack) and Suillus grevillei (Larch Bolete).

Slope covered with heather, mostly gone to seed, gorse, laced with winding paths cleared by grazing ponies + people's footfall leading to a grove of holly, oak + hawthorn on top of the hill. Dartmoor, Devon.

Heather, apparently, is collectively, grug - which is an inarguably brilliant word. A single heather, as pictured above is gruglon, also excellent.

To walk is kerdhes, 'dh' pronounced like Engish 'v' +, indeed, it's hard to walk in a straight line through heather.

I think the part that kills me the most is people who're like "they shouldn't have run a site if they couldn't [x arbitrary thing]". Like. This is the recipe for being beholden to VC platforms for EVER. If you insist on "be perfect or do nothing" to small teams you are asking for nothing to be made

A type of Asian raspberry introduced to North America in the late 1800s, they grow wild across the eastern US & are invasive as they spread fast & crowd out native plants.

If I take any home, they go in a sealed container so Iโ€™m not accidentally spreading seeds somewhere new. Forage responsibly!

Wineberries!โœจ๐Ÿ‡

Near my home, Iโ€™ve been lucky enough to stumble upon a wineberry bush growing wild. Theyโ€™re a little like raspberries, but shinier and a bit tart-sweet.

sketchy painting of two white wolves in a gray-ish green and brown forest,one of the white wolves is fading,and at their front there's a plant with white flowers. Their chests have a light orange light. Bellow them, there's a text that says: "I accept the pain of losing because it means I really had something worth holding onto"
