For my nature walk, I decided to walk a little path in the woods next to my house which lead to Tabor Lake. One thing I noticed while I was walking was there were several flies out. Some were attached to the various forms of fungi I came across, while others were attacking me relentlessly. I was curious as to why there were so many but I remembered there was a big storm in my area yesterday. I walked for around 35 minutes. It was pretty sunny out, however, the woods were very moist due to the rain the previous day. I first began to notice the lichen. It caught my eye because it was so evident, however it was not just growing on trees, but it was growing on rocks too. I was only noticing the lichen, so I decided to go deeper towards the lake and look more closely at my surroundings. This is when I began to notice the many types of fungi growing on trees, whether they were standing or had fallen down. Lastly, I noticed that there was a rock which appeared to have green fungi growing on the outer portion of the rock, with a white lichen circle in the middle. I found this the most interesting because I am now curious to research and try and find what it is. I used to visit this lake all the time when I was younger, but it is remarkable how there is so much diversity that I had overlooked.
This was a common occurrence everywhere I walked. This green grassy-like lichen was forming on the bottom of trees
I saw this mushroom like fungus growing off a tree
Not quite sure what to describe this as but this rock had many black dots and white lichen on it
I noticed many trees that were cut down and these mushrooms were growing off of them
Another tree with this type of fungi growing off of it
Another fallen tree with this fungi growing in it. Can see a bit of lichen as well
