I got distracted this week when the mushrooms lured me into the world of the small.
This red fellow has pushed through the moss to spend a little time before spreading a few spores here and about. We have several reds to be seen around the woods.
A cousin, I'm sure, sports a yellow hat and is close to the old red fellow.
When I came across these fine specimens I wanted to sit and wait until they started dancing. They really made me think of the Oriental Mushrooms in the Disney movie Fantasia. I could imagine then bowing and spinning in just the cutest way.
Well, the mushrooms just kept getting smaller as I looked around and I fell into that wonderful magical rabbit hole and began to look for the pixies who live in this world of the tiny.
By golly here was the evidence of at least one pixie gardener or mini bee keeper. I must keep looking.
Just behind the brier I spotted these very small flowers. A clue that the pixies are nearby.
Oh look, Pipsissewa. I think the clever pixies wire up these plants that look like street lights for midnight illumination on their frolics. My favorite thing about these plants is getting to say their name-Pipsissewa.
More evidence that pixies enjoy these woods. Here are low bush blueberries that will feed many little shy pixies and brownies.
Finally I can't prove it because they are so clever, but I think this is the entry to the Dogwood apartment complex. When the fireflies hover around the tree, I think pixies are dismounting from their rides to go into their home.

For other strolling about head to Aisling's place.
