Ain't that wacky

Field blewit (Lepista saeva)

Gorgeous little specimen - one of 5 or 6 that I spotted on a roadside verge on my cycle home from work, which came home with me and topped a noodle soup.

[ID: a painterly digital drawing of several creatures attending an indoor concert. the room they are in has bare rock walls and a dark-colored floor. there are speakers suspended from the ceiling and the corner of a poster can be seen on the rightmost wall. in the middle of the room is a small circular stage that a white cat-like character wearing a sleeveless shirt and a textured leather skirt is standing on. they have one large closed eye in the middle of their face and a long tail with a red X at the end of it. they are holding a microphone and singing, despite their lack of a mouth. the cord of the microphone trails off behind them and leads behind the stage.

on the floor, several concert goers have gathered around the stage. from left to right, they are: a robotic looking character with a head like an old radio, xe has xyr arms held out towards the stage and is wearing a long trench coat-style jacket with short sleeves. a raccoon-like character with her arms raised up, wearing an artist's beret, a necklace of strung together cans, and yellow rubber gloves. a dark grey character resembling a sea anemone standing with its arms at its sides. it has a ribbon around its neck, colorful bracelets on its lowers arms, and spiked cuffs around the two long tendrils sprouting from the sides of its head. the last character is a beetle-like character who is stood to the side and watching intently. he is wearing a flat beret cap and a blue, partially backless dress that his multicolored elytra stick out of. there are vague glimpses of other characters just out of the frame, implying these four are not the only ones in the venue. end ID]
