Gorgeous!
‘Foxfire’ can also be seen in the woods at night. It is a green glow from rotting wood.
I’ve spent a LOT of time, ‘in the field’ back in my Army days and it is SO COOL when you get to see it up close and personal!

Mushrooms are the main reason for the glow on rotting wood, but lots of other wild critters use it too, for mating purposes as well as defense.
