wow - great pic - loved the contrasting colours. Also looks like the mushroom has managed to breakthrough solid wood the way the base looks. Thanks for the informative blog!

I’ve seen these before, but haven’t been able to smell them, though. Is the smell very bad, and does it smell all the time or only at specific times?

How large was the one you photographed? I believe they can be quite a size?
