Glossophobia

            May I have your attention...please?

This tiny Mycena mushroom suffers from glossophobia, the fear of public speaking (from the Greek for 'tongue fear'). A serious lack of confidence has virtually crippled him in the past, but with with preparation, practice and positive thinking (and beta-blockers don't hurt!) he can cope with standing up in front of an unruly group.

For Macro Mondays theme 'Phobia'.
