RE: The Fungus Among Us

in #nature7 years ago

I love mushroom hunting. It shows...you really know your stuff. Makes me want to learn more. I've done some reading, but I really want to do more. There's so much to be explored regarding mushrooms. I like your comments about being connected, integrating yourself with the ecosystem. Your inference about the deer seems a bit fanciful to me, but I wouldn't disregard that personal meaning you found in the thought. And what do I know? Not enough to say I'm any kind of expert on the matter. I can't tell you that's not what happened, because I don't know. There's a whole lot we don't know.

Animals are amazing. My friend was walking her dog by my place today and told me he caught a scent and came bounding across a field into our yard and up our stairs. We take for granted the consciousness of animals, I think. They can't talk, but they know quite a lot through their other senses. They surely speak in other ways that we don't think to pay any mind to.
