Field Notes

Description:

Large mushroom with brown cap. The underside was covered in tiny flies, and there was a harvestman on top. I was so distracted by this interesting mushroom that I didn't even notice the newt sitting underneath it until I uploaded the picture!

Habitat:

Along a hiking trail in a deciduous forest.
