Hello everyone, how are you on this Friday, and I am back to prepare some beautiful mushrooms to be showcased at the #FungiFriday Community hosted by @ewkaw today.

Three days ago I went back around the oil palm plantation to look for mushrooms. And when I arrived there I immediately explored the plantation and found this species of Marasmiellus candidus fungus, and at that time I saw it growing well on the oil palm fronds that were in the pile, and its shape was rather small with a slightly yellowish white color that looked so attractive and beautiful.

And at that time I immediately approached it and took some portraits of this beautiful mushroom species that looked so interesting and perfect, and on this occasion I again captured some portraits of this mushroom species and I hope you like it and can enjoy it.

The second one is this Podoscypha mushroom species that thrives on dry leaf bushes, and at that time I immediately took some pictures of this beautiful and unique mushroom species with some shots that look very beautiful and graceful, and you can see below some shots of this mushroom species and I hope you like it.

This mushroom has a rather large body shape with white and yellow colors and looks very attractive when it blooms, and usually this mushroom will grow well in dry leaf bushes in the rainy season, and at the beginning of this new year our area experienced rain so that this mushroom species grew a lot in our area.

And the third is a species of wood fungus or better known by another name, namely Pycnoporus sanguineus. Its shape is similar to a fan with an orange color that looks so attractive and perfect, and at that time I saw it growing well on a pile of wood and as usual I immediately took some shots of pictures that looked very beautiful and attractive, and you can see them below.
