At the end of 2023, during the rainy season, I had the opportunity to go hunting in one of my favorite empty gardens. With the unpredictable weather, I was determined to hunt mushrooms alone in this area. Because I have visited this garden often, I have no fear of hunting. In this area, I was afraid that the rain would suddenly fall and wet all my belongings because there is no shelter here, I was very lucky that I didn't experience that.

I managed to find a small group of beautiful things that decorate the surface of the ground during this hunt, namely cup mushrooms or Cookeina speciosa mushrooms. Cookeina speciosa is the most common species found in its genus, this mushroom is pink with a height of 1-1.5cm, I found this mushroom growing on almost rotting palm fronds with high humidity in the area and not exposed to direct sunlight.
