Friday Fungi

So yes, we did  find plentiful fungi on our walk this week. I’ve had trouble to keep the numbers manageable, so many found. I hope you like what I’ve chosen. As usual, I only name those I’m fairly sure of. Enjoy…

    Quite the show this week. Any we may have had are now frozen as our sticking snow fell last week and it will be June before we see the earth again.

    Thanks for sharing, Crispina. I have never seen such colorful fungi. Are they all edible? The pink one stole the heart.

    • Alas, no, not all are edible. Though I could quote a well-known author who said ‘All fungi are edible. But some only once.’
      The reason I don’t like to name them is I don’t want anyone to go collect and eat because my tentative identity was an edible fungus when the true identity was poisonous. And there is no easy way to tell. The Death Cap looks remarkably like a mushroom you’d buy in a market
