The image presents a close-up view of Earthball mushrooms (Scleroderma texense) situated on a lawn within the David E. Schob Nature Preserve at 906 Ashburn Street, College Station, Texas. The photograph was taken on November 8, 2021.
Upon examining the image, it becomes apparent that the Earthballs are arranged in an irregular pattern across the grassy surface.

The caps of the mushrooms exhibit varying sizes, ranging from approximately 3 to 5 inches (7-13 cm) in diameter.
Notably, several Earthballs have been sliced open to reveal their dark-colored insides. This suggests that they may be edible, although the caption does not provide explicit information regarding this matter.
