Day Of The Myconids

Donna discovered a thing growing through the crack in a basement window yesterday. Obviously, some organic matter got trapped in between the window and the well and grew some sort of fungus using some handy moisture. Combined with a leaky old window you've got your basic fungal infestation. Donna was a little freaked out, but I don't know. Looks like a truffle to me.

Anyway, I'm going to clean it out and then get into the window well and see what's what. But first I want to get a closer look at this thing.

Seems pretty harmle-- arrghh! Ahhhhhh! What are those things? Ahhhh! Spores of some kind -- attacking me! Ahhh! Get 'em off! Get 'em off! Ahhhh! Ahhh! Ahhhhhhhh.....

Update: THERE IS NO CAUSE FOR ALARM. THE JAY IS FINE. I MEAN I -- I AM FINE. THE ENTITY IS NOT DANGEROUS. IT HAS MUCH TO TEACH AND WE HAVE MUCH TO LEARN. ALL IS WELL. END HUMANOID TRANSMISSION.
