Didn't know there are Buffalo in Mexico, they are cool beasts.

Are those the T. Floccussus you ate?





Awesome pics per usual!

That buffalo is adorable! I wouldn't want to get too close to it, but man, at the same time I kinda want to pet it. Of course, it'd trample me to death, but still.



How close did you get to it? Is that a telephoto shot?



We have something around here that looks very similar to that Stereocaulon. I'm sure it's totally different, but visually it's very close except maybe slightly whiter and more fragile. It grows from oak. Maybe I should take some pictures of it some time.

Do you ever worry about violence from the drug cartels in your travels through Mexico? Like getting kidnapped for ransom and whatnot.

That pic is from Valle Alegre, they have all sorts of animals wandering around.

Yes we ate them along with a bunch of other wild mushrooms. No bad reaction.

I used a fixed 100mm macro lens, which allowed me to be pretty far away.

We stopped to talk to him because we thought he had a big bag full of mushrooms, but his bag was actually full of chicken feed.

I felt sorry for this little Hebeloma species, rarely studied. So I collected it and scoped it.







I bet it's feeling more appreciated now!



All'round great pics per usual, Alan.
