On Baikie Island the restoration project continues. Along the water's edge, someone has been cutting down little alders; evergreen saplings in black plastic pots wait to be planted in in the newly-cleared space. On one of the downed alders, I found this crop of yellowish, flattish mushrooms covering most of its underside. (I rolled it over to get this photo.) I couldn't find any on any of the other trees, standing or cut, in the vicinity.

And why, I asked it, did you pick this one tree and ignore all the rest? No answer was forthcoming.
Busqué entre los árboles alrededor, en pie o tumbados, y no hubo más que este árbol con hongos.
Foto: el hongo, el tronco del aliso con pocitos hechos por chupasavias, y un poco de liquen de polvo, de un verde claro.
Y ¿porqué — le pregunté — escogiste este árbol y no tocaste ningún otro? No me respondió.

I'm having to moderate all comments because Blogger seems to have a problem notifying me. Sorry about that. I will review them several times daily, though, until this issue is fixed.
Also, I have word verification on, because I found out that not only do I get spam without it, but it gets passed on to anyone commenting in that thread. Not cool!
