Mushrooming - January 10

A few tiny blewets!


Some of the chanterelles have their own zip codes!

Round 2, same day, with Eric & Veronika.  When I told them about the flush I found - and that we could each pick as much as we could carry - Eric was skeptical.  "I don't like to pick an area clean - it's not good for the ecosystem!"  But when we got there -  he was surprised and even said "They don't let up!  It's  just like pulling weeds!"  I'm pretty sure this is his happy face here!


Fancy deformities - all ripply and flesh like...



Something we found on the way out:
