Fly agarics, warts washed away

8 November 2021 by David

Fly agarics, warts washed away

Fly agarics, bright red caps, but the white flecks of the “warts” over the caps all washed way by bouts of heavy rain. The so-called warts are the remnants of a veil which protected the caps as they pushed their way through the soil.
