Walking through the forest today I came upon a beautiful mushroom known as Amanita muscaria  .   With its stunning red with white spots this mushroom definitely looks vibrant.   Nature is indeed exciting and often full of many surprises.  In addition there are psychoactive properties associated with this mushroom when it is eaten.   It is well know that squirrels will have a few bites of this forest mushroom.  I guess we will just have to ask the squirrels about this psychoactive claim!

I love the above image of a deep dream Amanita.  It illustrates that the forest floor is alive and occupied by mythical life forms that we can only imagine!  When we are walking through a forest we do not see a lot of the creatures that live there.  Sit down in a forest for a short while and you will often see the creatures of the forest reveal themselves to you.  By being silent you will notice a lot of small movements of the forest creatures like birds, banana slugs and small rodents.  If you are patient you will always be rewarded!
