Dave's Views

By davethespoon

Why did the mushroom go to the new years eve party

Because he was a fungi... In response to CleanSteve's blip today

I've posted the fungi pic. They're anonymous however as I've failed

to id them, but very important as they break down woody matter,

cellulose and lignin, which otherwise would not rot. This releases

nutrients back in to the soil at the base of the food web. Soil only is

brown because fungi release melanin - not a lot of people know that.

Thanks to Steve and Keith for a fun walk and drink today. We'll do it again - meanwhile have a blipping new year.
