They're Baaacccckkkk!

Puffballs!!

A few days with overnight temps below 70 apparently did it for them.

They weren't there Wed, but I was able to pick nine of them the size of softballs today. That's sort of the perfect size; the skin isn't even very tough when they're young.

If I can find one...

strange that no one posts in this group for months and then a post isn't good enough...

oh well, here you go a pic of a puffball in situ... this is from Wiki as I don't have a pic that wouldn't reveal my ID.
