Hi there,

this little guys are called milk caps because they emit a milky liquid when the cap or the lamellae are damaged.

Taken on August 14th in a forest near Detmold.

So lush and earthy, even though I live in the southern and cooler part of Australia, I would really have to travel a bit to see anything like it, so thanks for sharing 👍

The fact that they were naturally formed and you framed them in a photo so beautifully is simply amazing.
