Mushrooms of ASTRON
| Submitter: | Arno Schoenmakers |
| Description: | The national park Dwingelderveld around the ASTRON office is extremely rich in different species of mushrooms. There have been counted more than 1000 different ones. This indicates how special this area is, and that nature preservation is quite successful. What you also see is that the different types of soil and vegetation in the park harbour different species. To give an impression of the diversity of mushrooms you can encounter on your daily stroll, I made a round in the area directly surrounding the ASTRON facility and took some pictures of different species I encountered. I am always really amazed by the amount, colorfulness and beauty of these wonders of nature. And this is just a small selection of what is really out there…! The next time that you take a lunch walk, allow yourself to step a bit off the path, stand still or crouch close to the ground, and in time you will start seeing also the tiny little ones which are really abundant in many places. Enjoy it now, as this is peak season! |
