So....I couldn't get it to show well in photo as I only had my cell phone on me, but all the light areas of this worm bioluminesced blue. So uh...wtf? Who knows what kind of earthworm can biolumenesce? Or did it like...eat a firefly? No I'm not seeing things, I was not the only one there and we all saw it. And yes, all sober, in case you are thinking that.

Description

EDIT: ID'd as Castanea alabamensis which is not in iNat database.

Original Text: all of these were growing around old standing deads. Did not quite look Am Chestnut, the leave shape not quite like I'm used to, and size is smaller. The standing deads around, at largest, were small for Am Chestnut as well. Single leader trunk only 2ft ish diameter at largest (most more 18"-24"), and the fork only 8-10 ft off the ground. Tree height looked too small as well. No signs of anything large in the area, not even old stumps. Signs of old pre-wilderness-era logging of this tree species as well. I am thinking a Chinkapin?

That's the first space shuttle orbiter Enterprise (though it never made it to space exactly), which was stored in Mobile before being brought to New Orleans for the 1984 world's fair the following spring. The observation is for the photo with the grass, but I added the two other photos for posterity :)

Growing under/between Trichaptum biforme mushrooms on large dead Northern red oak in woodland ridge. There were a few other large dead red oaks near by, presumably killed by oak wilt.

Reminds me of ozonium from Coprinellus but more coarse and cord-like.

The name should be called "Bracket Beard"
