EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot by Peter Lewis, the enchanting world of fungi comes to life as we witness the mesmerizing dance of the Magpie inkcap (Coprinus picaceus) fungus. Against a backdrop of lush greenery in Wimborne, Dorset, England, these whimsical creatures emerge during October, adding an extra touch of magic to the autumnal scenery. With their striking black and white appearance resembling a magpie's feathers, these ink cap fungi effortlessly steal the show. Their delicate gills elegantly unfurl like intricate lacework beneath their caps, creating a stunning contrast against nature's canvas. As members of the basidiomycota family and belonging to agaricomycetes order within agaricales group, these fascinating organisms showcase Mother Nature's artistic flair. Found across Europe and particularly thriving in Western Europe and Great Britain, they bring joy not only to mycologists but also to anyone lucky enough to stumble upon them during their woodland walks. So let us celebrate this extraordinary display of natural beauty captured by Peter Lewis! Whether you're an avid mushroom enthusiast or simply appreciate the wonders that our planet has to offer, allow yourself to be enchanted by this delightful duo – two charming Magpie inkcaps gracefully posing for their moment in front of Peter's lens.
