One of the identifying features of the Death Cap is its large, swollen base, called a volva. When the mushroom fruiting body grows, it is enveloped by something called a Universal veil. As it gets larger, that veil breaks apart, leaving behind the sac-like volva, and on some fungi, some speckling on the cap. In some species there is no evidence of the universal veil at all!

Check out this beetle taking off! I always find beetles flying so intriguing since their forewings have been modified into rigid elytra. They use their hind wings to fly, and the rigid elytra to protect their bodies from water and to blend in (or stand out if that's what their color is adapted for).

It's Story Sale time! We are rearranging my office into a dual-purpose space, so I need to get rid of a bunch of items! The Art of Ecology merch, some nature & art decorations, as well as books will be on sale (super discounted, shipping included), so head on over to my stories today to check it out!

For as amazing (edible and so nutritious!) as this fungi is for humans, the presence of Chicken of the Woods spells death for trees. This fungi is parasitic and causes rot within its host, then, the fungi feeds on the dead tree cells. It is commonly found on the lower trunks of oaks and cherry trees here in PA.
