I'm sure many of you will have guessed that yesterday's close up was of a mushroom. This is the poisonous Amanita muscaria var guessowii, or yellow fly agaric mushroom, native to North America.
Do NOT eat one of these! Despite being both toxic and hallucinogenic, it is quite a beautiful fungus to look at.
As it grows, the rounded cap becomes convex and then eventually flattens out.
