Yesterday, the downpours in the San Antonio area finally stopped. In a few weeks, we went from being on the verge of Stage 3 drought restrictions to having an overflowing pool and a leaking roof.

When the sun came out, I surveyed our yard to see if any more visitors had arrived, taking advantage of the cover of rain. I found this one hiding under the ginger, and quite a fetching color:

Small red mushroom

 

I checked on the status of our visitor who arrived a few days ago. It is even taller now.

Huge mushroom view from the side

 

When I angled up to view it from overhead, I suddenly noticed a strange pattern emerging, a sort of face, if you will.

Disturbing image forming on huge mushroom

 

Now that the sun is forecast to stay out and we're apparently back to summer weather, the odd beings will probably be going back to wherever they came from. It must be a wondrous place.

What great visitors Robin.  Looks like you might have a fairy or two in your garden :o).  I am thankful for the rain, but am looking forward to a little "drying out" :o).  I think the aquifer is full now :o)!

Great shots, Robin! The one with the face would have sent me running in horror long before I could snap the shutter! You're a brave woman! LOL

Thanks for stopping by to examine the strange visitors, ladies!

Those are not my colors, Craig. I'm really more of a pastel person.

Debi, I will protect you.

Robin, That absolutely had me laughing.  I think Craig may have a bit of competition with his photo shop skills (which are nothing short of AMAZING!!).  Loved this, thanks for the laugh.

I'll be sure to stay on Robin's good side, I don't photograph well :)

I went out and checked on my otherwordly guest first thing this morning. By the light of a beautiful crescent moon, I could see that it had gone.

I like the Om-ish version of my thought waves better, Craig. But Debi and I are not intimidated.

BRING IT!
