Mini Fungus

One morning I checked the worm farm and found the most beautiful tiny fungus growing on top of the wet newspaper. The ribbed top is powered with sugar cristals and they look so delicate.

Cocoon

Found this cocoon under the mulberry tree in our garden, looking forward to see the result as I am keeping it in a glass with leaves. It moves it's bum vigorously when I pick it up...

Seeding basil

My basil lasted this year from spring to winter and is still going although I left more than half of it going to seed. The green stems turn bright purple when finished blooming.
