A beautiful fungus, Ischnoderma resinosum, which produces "forest pearls"

Ischnoderma resinosum, a beautiful fungus, but like many beautiful things, a little complicated. As I said, the scientific name of a species helps us to cross on the other side of the river, but only if we swimming ourself.

More than twenty scientific names have this fungus. It is neither the first nor the last. So tangled is life in mycology. And not only.

We see for ourselves what our lives look like when it slip out of our own mind and when it is driven by foreign and enemies thoughts. And when it doesn't slip ...?

Ischnoderma resinosum is a species of fungus in the family Fomitopsidaceae. This fungus fruits on hardwood logs and stumps in late autumn.

Commonly known as the late fall polypore, resinous polypore, or benzoin bracket it is a shelf mushroom velvety, dark red or dark brown, aging black.

The flesh is spongy but tough, sweet smelling.

Its flesh exudes a red liquid when young.

I was lucky, today, to find it young, full of small red pearls, as in a fairy tale, from which you would not want to escape.

To tell you that this mushroom is edible at a young stage is like saying that angels can be prepared in the kitchen as roast in the oven.

Let's leave the beautiful, the ineffable and the miracle... where their place is. In the soul and not in the stomach.

A wonderful life, for you all!

I go through the forests, mountains, hills, fields, and waters to understand the living world and to create a living mind.

I'm just a man who is on passing on this living earth.

A living earth that is closer to death, because of us, of the human being. I spend all my time in nature, enjoying its show. All this time I try to make a video encyclopedia with flora and fauna that I encounter on this living earth. Sometimes with human fauna ...

I meet wild mushrooms, medicinal mushrooms, edible mushrooms, dead mushrooms, toxic mushrooms, magic mushrooms. Every wild mushroom with its mystery and story. The living earth is still amazing. I meet plants, flowers, trees, shrubs, grass, leaves fallen on the living land, leaves fallen on the dead land, leaves that dance in our thoughts and soul. I meet insects, invertebrates of all kinds, butterflies, worms, larvae, birds, fish, mammals, reptiles, amphibians...

But I also encounter deforested forests, hunters, poachers, animals killed, tormented, in a suffering that words can not express. I also meet people who think it is good that they behave like this.

I stretch my hand and save an insect from the drowning. But this people trample under foot my hand. They make their choice. I make my choice.

Sometimes I manage to correctly identify the species of living beings: mushrooms, plants, animals, insects. Sometimes not. What I know is much less than what I do not know. I am just a man in front of a knowledge that surpasses me, overcomes us.

I do not know enough English yet to make my clips more attractive. But I'm learning...A wonderful life, I wish you all!
