@jayo The FROG turns a beautiful photo into a hilarious photo. I'm still chuckling over it.

Saw these in NY recently! Not with a nice frog, but I was still excited by their color. I wonder what their mycelium feeds on? Living wood? Dead wood? Other mushrooms? Something more exotic?
I also met a very friendly carpenter ant nearby and she was happy to rest on my hand and warm up for a bit.

@jayo supposedly they glow in the dark (hence the Latin name)! I have never seen them, not enough oaks up here...

@jayo I have read that the gills glow in the dark. The photo in my mushroom book shows them glowing greenish. Very spooktober!

@jayo If video games have taught me anything, that frog is about to give you a side quest.

@jayo would you look at them at night and see if they glow??

@futurebird @jayo Do they glow in the dark like the western ones are supposed to? (Never seen them myself. . .)
