Fly Agaric- Amanita muscaria

This is a Toadstool I think . Captured at Yateley park on the field shoot with Rolf in October. I mislaid it some how but here it is . Beautiful isn't it. I wouldn't fancy it with steak and chips some how.
It was underdeveloped so have patched it up a bit

Have just read that it is poisonous but not deadly and is called Fly Agaric because of it's former use as a preparation for killingflies

Oh yes, that is pretty Chocky, not really in to fungus, but appreciate and interesting looking one.

Yes. I only go for the pretty fungi.

I find it not quite so interesting as moving wildlife but each unto his own
