This containment pond area in a Roseville business park was filled with auricomus visiting Monarda - easily over 20. This was the largest one of them.

Near a declining oak but closer to a spot where a crabapple had been removed two years earlier...also woods nearby with various dead and dying trees. I didn't find any more in the woods, but the woods were covered with garlic mustard.

Little Blue Heron (Egretta caerulea)Observer
jenniferf4Description
This bird was pretty far away from me. I've only seen reddish egret twice, but the size seemed like the reddish egrets I saw on Merritt Island (larger than a little blue, but smaller than a great blue heron). It's feeding behavior seemed more like a little blue heron (stalking slowly rather than feeding in a very active way). I have more pictures, but many are fuzzy. The bird was in and out of the shadows of the mangroves so the lighting is either too dark or too much glare.

This observation is for the orange fungus. The fruiting structures were very dry when I took the photo.. The spores are from a tape mount. I measured one spore at about 15 µm long by 5 µm wide.

Pinwheel Family (Family Marasmiaceae)Observer
jenniferf4Description
I think the pinker ones are just a younger stage of the whiter ones, but I could be wrong. They were very close together. Two days after a rain. I let a Dry on a glass slide. I couldn't see a spore print but there were some spores on the slide unless those are contaminants.

Possibly one of the same individuals seen on Saturday. They are so uncommon here, I want to photograph every observation.
