Field guide No. 1131
Layered mushroom among fallen leaves
Three storeys, no lift.
A pale-stemmed mushroom with three stacked brown caps stands in damp leaf litter beside a mossy fallen log. It has built upward the way a pagoda would, without the permit.
Field noteThree storeys of cap on one stem; the mushroom built upward and filed no plans.

Ants stitch a cracked boulderAnts do carry and build. Sewing granite shut with grass is a tailor’s job at a quarry’s scale.
Dandelion through the bucketA dandelion grows through a rusted bucket. The flower has taken over the lease.
Torn leaf, emerging butterfliesA torn leaf edge turns into butterflies of its own colour. Moths do mimic leaves; none are born from one.
Field notesTerraces are carved hillsides; pages are carved trees. Read generously, it is a sculpture of a farm.
