I look at the botany photo of the day every day. This is a service provided by the Botanical Gardens at the University of British Columbia and I really appreciate their attempt to wean us away from animals.
Usually the photographs are spectacular closeup images taken with cameras that are much more expensive than mine. But yesteday's picture was from Google Earth! It shows 100 year old fairy rings near Kensington Palace in central London. The rings are probably caused by Marasmius oreades. Find out how a little fungus can make rings visible from so high.
