It's Stinkhorn Season

Last year my neighbor pointed out that we have them.  Stinkhorn fungus.  They come out after a good rain in the spring time. 

 

 

Aptly named little buggers, they smell like a combination of old musty discloth and un-run garbage disposal.  They've got this baby poo colored sticky stuff on them and I'm totally grossed out.  Just these two smell up the whole front yard.

And, from a distance, they look like some gross serial licker is buried all but his tongue under my mulch.

Gee-ross.

Hah.  Wasn't that a charming post.  Hope you aren't reading this while you eat lunch.
