Unusual for me, when I usually want to identify every little plant tree or bird, I have no need to identify mushrooms. I know our local morels, and the rest just look pretty to me. I did photograph a few back when we were in Maine last week but didn't bother to identify them. Good for you.

We grilled part of it for lunch yesterday and it was delicious! But it's one of only four mushrooms that I know well enough to harvest. Not worth it to take a chance on any others! You found some that I've never seen. I agree that spotted one should be named a leopard mushroom. :-)Laurelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6790583569537123678.post-35947577920730690652022-09-28T18:09:37.653-07:002022-09-28T18:09:37.653-07:00Such a pretty waterfall.Such a pretty waterfall.William Kendallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00331324250821836822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6790583569537123678.post-68345842827209088742022-09-28T17:24:44.413-07:002022-09-28T17:24:44.413-07:00I like it.
