Fly Agaric

It was early this morning when we saw this Fly Agaric mushroom in the hotel grounds. There was the bright red cap with its white spots, and something had been nibbling it! I know these fungi are not safe to eat, poisonous I think.

The colours are pretty accurate. The sun was shining from a quite low angle so the red is a bit burnt out.

This is one of the most amazing fungi I have ever seen.
