Today's Picture:
The spiny puffball is one of the strangest mushrooms I've seen. Easily mistaken for a spiky seed coating, most people wouldn't even notice it among the fallen rotting leaves where it grows. Even if you see it, you'll probably approach it with some caution - these spines look quite real - but are in fact soft as the rest of the mushroom.
The one on the picture is still young, when they mature enough they grow a 2-3 cm long "stalk".
