Fungi on the Tundra


Well, I may be 2500 km from home, but I'm still taking pictures of fungi. At least it isn't at twilight with a flash. I have no idea what it is - but I think its one of the funkiest fungi I've ever photographed - :D The bearberry are all turning a fabulous shade of red. I know Arctostaphylos Uva-Ursi - but up here they are either Arctostaphylos alpina or rubra. Their inuit names include kablarjuit and kablat.
