Was signed in to my Google Plus account this morning. G+ has this Collections feature where people organize and collect stuff similar to Pinterest pinboards. As with all “artificial intelligence” or "cyber snooping" or whatever you call it when you weren't asking or searching or doing anything but suggestions pop up on your screen. Up pops a suggestion to FOLLOW this guy's collection of “Mushrooms”. I'm thinking: “A collection? How many mushrooms can there be in this world?” Shows how ignorant I am! Hundreds!! This gentleman, Glenn Smith, is in Australia and is a very avid nature photography. Apparently, he also photographs birds. I'm a bird lover and Australia is on my imaginary bucket list of "Places to Visit". So the G+ recommendation actually yielded extra findings. I'm impressed. https://plus.google.com/110945211565473865609/posts/2qhQz3vvi6d

Not a great fan of mushrooms. I don't trust them. A friend of mine picks wild ones, but I stick to the safe option. Having said that, I don't like the ones with vivid colours... not to eat, though!

This sounds interesting. I keep well away from all these types of groups but I'm sure there are some good ones around.

@cmoneyspinner I can imagine it could be very time-consuming. The hours fly by sometimes when you're on the computer.
