The big #anthill I pass on my lunchtime walks is coming to life! (for size reference, the hill is somewhere between 4 and 5 feet tall.

I don't check it daily so it's possible that I'm late to catch on, but this was the first time all winter I've seen activity on the hill. They're moving slowly, presumably to conserve energy.

A good lesson, that: Move slowly. Conserve energy.

Four #fungi from yesterday's walk.

The orange one was WILD. I'm not sure if it was dying or fruiting or what, but it appeared to be melting into orange slime. Super neat.
