Fungi come in a vast range of shapes, from the elegant to the bizarre. Fungi span the spectrum of colours, from dull tans and browns to spectacular indigos, crimsons and yellows.
Fungi provide a pleasure and challenge to identify.
In short, fungi are fascinating, fun, and fetching. The study of fungi is termed mycology. In Ontario, there is only one organization dedicated to the study of fungi, the Mycological Society of Toronto. Now in its 25th year and with over 250 members, the MST is eager to share its expertise with other interested naturalists. Birders are urgently requested to participate and to fill out nest cards for all active nests found.
