Or more appropriately, 3 Days AS the Life of a Mushroom. This is a terrific time lapse video that I've been using to highlight the short, sweet, and sad I think, life of a mushroom. (Of course the mycelium is still alive in the rotted wood, and may continue to shoot up these Coprinus mushrooms for some time to come.) The added music is a nice touch.
Thanks to nshack for taking the time (3 days time!) to create this.

Very nice video and it reminds me of my lucky mushroom hunting days when I find perfect mushrooms that I know were too small yesterday but will start to rot tomorrow. This is btw my first visit to your blog and I liked it very much!
I've been interested in mushrooms for a while now and am lucky to get the chance to pursue this interest working for a nature sanctuary. What does that entail? Well, I often have large decaying, stinking, bug-infested mushrooms on my desk at work... now you can't beat that.
