it's my puffy and dusty friend from childhood again ; ))! very unusual indeed! it looks a little like an albino potato! and amazing that it seems to be growing right out of that tree – i always thought "bovists" were "ground dwellers"… beautiful shot! love that little "blob" of color added by the little yellow leaf! greetings, sabine.

Der junge Bovist zeigt sich hier von seiner schönen Seite. Vor allem das milchige Weiß finde ich sehr fein, gerade auch in dieser Umgebung.Gruß Tina
