I love ducks, nice photos.
Hi Sara. I think fungi season is over so this marks the start of moth season. Do you like these giant moths? :-) You're right. There was a bunch of about 6 of these guys all the same and I think they were looking to cause trouble. I could hear the paint spray cans rattling in their pockets.
Looks like males in all 3 pictures.
Interesting fungi ;-)
