One day last summer we chanced upon a Fairy Ring in the park.

Hoping to see a fairy, we went closer...

Dare we step inside?

There was a fairy duplex,

A fairy mansion,

A fairy cottage,

And all sorts of fairy homes.

















We never saw a fairy that day, but we think that they saw us.

Wow... those are perfectly fantastic photos! I could almost see the fairies flitting from abode to abode.

Oh Wow!! Beautiful! The fairies will thank you for leaving their circle unbroken.

Cute photo essay Andrea.

I think I saw one! Remember, Miranda used to think that fairies lived in the bush next to our house. Those pictures turned out really good!

How beautiful - and magical, Andrea!

Those are death angels I think. Incredibly tasty. .. but you die from liver failure after eating them. This makes me want to go mushroom hunting again soon. Stupid college getting in the way of my nature-ing :\
