Mushroom Monday - Nothing but Nests

I took my daughter out to make mudpies in the rain and found loads more bird's nest fungi for this #mushroommonday
![1000000992.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sketch.and.jam/EonkbQYbZCiQMYkEucZsJ4BYr34Qytha7PVEUs9Wo6DSd8iZZuHkkuGot5GtBhhSgFZ.jpg)
I usually see about two types of bird's nest fungi where I live. This variant has ridges with gray eggs. As you can see the nest fills up with rain, then when a drop directly hits it all the eggs grow flying.

![1000000997.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sketch.and.jam/EoGyPy7JBn4TTqW9xtyRiNee1k1gAW1wYmUFsKyn8qha7ci4Crdt7HAhjpNVHjbARJx.jpg)
Here's what the fluted nests look like before they have revealed the eggs.

this one is probably Cyathus striatus aka fluted bird's nest.

![1000000996.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sketch.and.jam/EoK6JseNWWmCxagagQQDc1FG7XZu9F4dP9aCiTm83391j99tXjYkjrxc6XCfccukUTW.jpg)
They resemble something from a Dr. Seuss book.

![1000001001.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sketch.and.jam/EoK6kKHa8oE49XFX3YKzNSTtf1UfCNhu4vjeFErDNhXWWpSEbFHJY2Bpi8aSQ36yXtD.jpg)
Here is a bit of process of them opening up. The tops kind of rot or dry off and reveal a paper layer that cracks off revealing the eggs.

![1000001002.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sketch.and.jam/Eo6LRj4agW8WgKwb2kRXmF2Ysju6Ypzt9FTqGS4WQFCAzbwsSjpXfkWHMpEWEeNaEY2.jpg)
Here is another type of bird's nest fungi I see here. They are orange and smooth and their nest insides are smooth as well.

![1000000986.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sketch.and.jam/EorzmCExzbwF9KRurFxdNi4rsMocEozWhwuXHPkrztq8kE8qA197Zx81e2tbVShHsHW.jpg)
Most bird's nest is quite small and I almost always find it growing on wood chips or mulch.

![1000000985.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sketch.and.jam/EoK5qfw2nLhxP9NXSHyU2njxZSoTDzDZ26XYUzZ3g6TgXvmi1B6kZs91PKQARgxmyBK.jpg)
Here you can see some of this variant's nest interior, not fluted sides like the previous version.

![1000000991.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sketch.and.jam/EoGwS3LzErBPwuaa6FdahHzuoMDtcA8Ue2kVcvpRLCnjqW9mrJkj7MPKx9BebCP8zHx.jpg)
I thought I caught the prefect picture of a smooth nest but it was so humid out that the camera lens fogged up. Still you can see the white eggs and smooth interior. The outside kind of resembles a clay pot. There are many types my best guess on this one's ID is Cyathus olla.

That's all for now, keep an eye out on the mulch and woodchips during hot summer rains and you might find these guys.
