Today's walk through the park wasn't exactly what I'd hoped for. The chilly wind and occasional drizzle weren't exactly pleasant, but the basic distance was covered. The birds were fed. There were more…madventure in # blurt • 2 days ago • 2 min readRain-loving summer fungi - Beech rooter and Sheathed woodtuftThere are many species of mushrooms that show their beauty primarily during the rainy season. Of course, they also enjoy a bit of sunlight, but water is their element. Without it, they are short-lived, die quickly, and sometimes I have nothing left to photograph the next day. The common finch can survive without water for…madventure in # blurt • 3 days ago • 2 min readLithuanian beer Kalnapilis and Korean fastfoodToday, a bit unusual combination, because the Lithuanian beer itself may not be amazing, but the dish straight from the Korean fast food may surprise. Although most of the ingredients are made of a bag, unfortunately they are irreplaceable. I am not able to prepare such a dish with a home method. But the own element in this set is fresh…madventure in # blurt • 4 days ago • 1 min readMore beautiful and strange flowers in the park gardenAnemone scabiosa In today's post, I'll describe a few more plants from the secret garden, because contrary to appearances, their number is increasing rather than decreasing over time. As autumn approaches, more interesting plant species can be observed in the garden. Even after most of the plants in our garden have finished blooming…madventure in # blurt • 6 days ago • 2 min readHuge mushrooms - Tinder fungusWhen I went to the forest near me, I expected to find various species of mushrooms. Even though it's a forest near a large urban area, I always spotted something in the field. Tinder fungus, as the name suggests, is present everywhere and this is true, as it can be found in the least expected places, but this was the first time…madventure in # blurt • 7 days ago • 1 min readDay for intensive balcony workBesides a walk in the park and around the pond, I also had other physical activities today, namely various balcony chores. Some of my balcony babies, such as peppers and tomatoes, finished their stay on the bushes. I had to pick them up; the last few days of intense heat have accelerated their ripening significantly. Tomorrow's the next…madventure in # blurt • 8 days ago • 2 min readLithuanian Tauras beer and cabbage rolls with tomato sauceToday I'm working on a Lithuanian beer called "Tauras," which simply means bull. It's a non-alcoholic beer, but still a beer. This Vilnius brewery was founded in 1860 and has many good beers in its arsenal. With my beer, I enjoyed a dish that has different names in different regions of the world but is made similarly: cabbage rolls in…madventure in # blurt • 9 days ago • 1 min readHot and windy day, and in the evening an almost Mediterranean climateToday is another day of August heat, according to the weather forecast – the last one of the year. Is that a good thing? I like high temperatures and I'll miss them. I'd rather drink cold water or a beer than hot tea. Today it was mostly a walk around the park gardens, looking for shade, although the warm wind was also a…madventure in # blurt • 10 days ago • 1 min readIt was a hot Thursday, it was hard not to sweat even just walking aroundDays like this were lacking last week. Hot, warm winds, and plenty of sunshine. Only late in the afternoon did a few clouds appear. That's why most of my walk today is a lot of shady places, a lot of forest. And in the late afternoon, visit the pond and chat with friends in a refreshing atmosphere. Despite the high…madventure in # blurt • 11 days ago • 2 min readFairy Inkcap and our friend a calm, slow killerAs soon as there is a little more moisture and precipitation, a fungus called Fairy Inkcap appears in the summer. The name of the mushroom is not accidental, because it can grow huge tracts, most often at trees. There may be even several thousand in one place in one place. Due to the number in one place, it can practically not be…madventure in # blurt • 13 days ago • 2 min readA very rare tree mushroom - Crown coralThis is the first time I've encountered this rare species of mushroom (Artomyces pyxidatus) in my area. I've seen it in other forests far from where I live. This particular mushroom has made its home in several Silesian forests, which I visit frequently, mainly in summer and autumn. The mushroom is very similar to a coral mushroom and is…madventure in # blurt • 14 days ago • 1 min readDay was quite bearable, but the wind could be annoyingThe weather wasn't too bad today, but the cold northerly breeze reminded us of the approaching autumn. So we adjusted our camping plans, as the low temperatures at night were taking a toll on my back. Today, it was mostly a walk in the park and around the pond. Besides the temperature, autumn isn't really in sight, but it is definitely…madventure in # blurt • 15 days ago • 1 min readIn the sun, summer in the shade, AprilIt wasn't my dream Sunday. I know where I live and that 18-degree weather shouldn't surprise me, but it does. The planned tent camping trip has been canceled. I'm probably too old for frosty nights and constant back problems. I've become too comfortable. Does August suck? We will probably do a shortened version of the one-day…madventure in # blurt • 16 days ago • 1 min readIt was set in autumn, and this is only AugustBefore going out for a walk, I dressed as usual in shorts and a short sleeve shirt. However, I decided to water the flowers on the balcony. What was my surprise when I felt the morning cold. I immediately changed my short pars and a T -shirt, for autumn clothing, and as it turned out later, it was not enough. And then a walk around…madventure in # blurt • 17 days ago • 1 min readAnd it's Tuesday, beautiful but coldThis is not the worst day of the week, it's the best day of the week. Two chickadees returned to the feeder today. Interestingly, they're definitely young birds, but there's a slight hitch. Young tits don't make any sounds at all. They sit on branches, survey the area, and react to falling food. Their parents were very noisy…madventure in # blurt • 18 days ago • 1 min readMonday's storms, it's beautifulToday it was a bit boring in the park. Few walkers, and you can feel autumn in general. A bit of march on forest wilderness, some peace and silence. I wanted that. Some forest, greenery, this cannot be displaced from the head. Well, at the end, nice forest design.

The plans are tense, and we will probably not be able to squeeze more. But you have to enjoy what is. Mushroom collections were already abundant this year, and nature did not regret our beautiful views. During his last stay in our tent, one of the…madventure in # blurt • 20 days ago • 1 min readVariegated finch, edible or just for viewing?I'll start from the end. This is an edible mushroom, but its flavor is limited, if not nonexistent. But this mushroom has a completely different quality; it looks beautiful.

It grows in masses, practically winding its way up old…madventure in # blurt • 21 days ago • 1 min readAnother successful trip to the Jurassic skiesAnother successful trip to the Kraków-Częstochowa Upland, but this time, a report from the Centuria River. It just so happened that our trip coincided with the peak of the heatwave, and 34 degrees Celsius in the shade isn't a pleasant temperature, even in the forest. So we decided to head to the Centuria River, which always brings…madventure in # blurt • 22 days ago • 1 min readToday it's a relief, material fatigueMy Jurassic journeys left me with sore muscles. And that's all that remained. A gentle walk in the park, meeting friends, chatting. Because returning from a real forest to a park is a disappointment. But you have to return. I'm gathering energy for tomorrow. I hope it's a great Monday.
