2015 Oct 2 - mushroom madness

Post date: Oct 4, 2015 5:15:19 PM

I have joined the Google+ Nature Photography Community, which is a global group that shares their nature photos online.

We try to keep within the season, and post photos taken the same day or week, providing positive feedback for those we really like.

Mushrooms have been a hot topic lately, the most beautiful being shared from European forests.

I have lived here over 20 years, and never took the time to explore the woodland floor in our yard for mushrooms, until today.

My walk in the woods, yielded quite a variety!

At least 6 different types of fungi were found growing in the fallen leaves.

I am making mushroom soup for dinner tonight (store bought varieties).

There is a lot to learn about mushrooms...time to finally dive into my 574 page book, titled Growing Gourmet and Medicinal Mushrooms!
