One of the joys of being a naturalist is venturing out with intrepid hikers -- rain or shine -- to catch the action. On a recent rainy day at \u003ca title=\"Redwood Regional Park\" href=\"http://www.ebparks.org/parks/redwood\" target=\"_blank\">Redwood Regional Park\u003c/a>, our three-mile hike followed the eastern side of the park, from Canyon Trail to East Ridge, then dropped down Prince Trail to the Stream Trail for the return trip. Some of the things I love about this hike is touring three different habitats as you follow the route. It's a physically demanding hike with a steep ascent at the start of the trail, so you get a little workout while you're out there. I also appreciate the quiet seasonal beauty of the park with highlights that change throughout the year. Some of the seasonal wonders you'll find in the park this time of year include fungus, migrating rainbow trout, and overwintering ladybugs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since the East Bay Regional Park District doesn't allow collecting of any natural resources, a fun alternative for fungi fans is \"mushroom watching.\" Most of us enjoy wildflowers without picking them, likewise there is an amazing diversity of fungus to learn about and appreciate. The shapes range from round balls to your standard mushroom on a stem with every shape in-between, along with multiple colors and patterns. For a sampling of different types to look for, check out this website from further north at \u003ca title=\"Redwood National Park fungi gallery\" href=\"http://www.nps.gov/redw/photosmultimedia/fungi-gallery.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Redwood National Park\u003c/a>. It showcases the many types of fungi found in their park. One of the amazing things about fungi is the extensive, web-like underground system, called mycelium, that gives rise to the fruiting body, or mushroom.

One of the joys of being a naturalist is venturing out with intrepid hikers -- rain or shine -- to catch the action. On a recent rainy day at \u003ca title=\"Redwood Regional Park\" href=\"http://www.ebparks.org/parks/redwood\" target=\"_blank\">Redwood Regional Park\u003c/a>, our three-mile hike followed the eastern side of the park, from Canyon Trail to East Ridge, then dropped down Prince Trail to the Stream Trail for the return trip. Some of the things I love about this hike is touring three different habitats as you follow the route. It's a physically demanding hike with a steep ascent at the start of the trail, so you get a little workout while you're out there. I also appreciate the quiet seasonal beauty of the park with highlights that change throughout the year. Some of the seasonal wonders you'll find in the park this time of year include fungus, migrating rainbow trout, and overwintering ladybugs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since the East Bay Regional Park District doesn't allow collecting of any natural resources, a fun alternative for fungi fans is \"mushroom watching.\" Most of us enjoy wildflowers without picking them, likewise there is an amazing diversity of fungus to learn about and appreciate. The shapes range from round balls to your standard mushroom on a stem with every shape in-between, along with multiple colors and patterns. For a sampling of different types to look for, check out this website from further north at \u003ca title=\"Redwood National Park fungi gallery\" href=\"http://www.nps.gov/redw/photosmultimedia/fungi-gallery.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Redwood National Park\u003c/a>.

The mushroom’s primary role in life is to make and spread the tiny spores of the fungus. Take your typical mushroom, a round disk (the cap) perched on a stem (the stipe). The underside of the cap has gills radiating from the center.
