🍄 #MushroomMonday: Maitake
It grows in frilly gray fans at the foot of an old oak, and comes back at the same tree every fall! Foragers call it hen of the woods and check their spots each October.
In Under the Elm, find it in the Oak Forest 🍂

These guys are called Lentinus Tigrinus. Your eyes are not deceiving you. They are fuzzy to the touch! These guys are pretty small. They can be a bit bigger than this. I've recently learned this mushroom is edible. Can't wait to try it soon. #mushrooms #mycology #foraging
This one is called trametes aesculi. It's hard so its not very good for eating but it does excel in being very frizbee shaped and is an absolute blast to throw around. #mushrooms #mycology #foraging
Chicken of the woods. I dont know the origin of this picture. I think a friend sent it to me. It's in my mushroom finds folder but I didn't take it. #mushrooms #mycology #foraging
Big old jelly ear mushrooms. Some years ago. #mushrooms #mycology #foraging
This is Favolus Brasiliensis. It's a honeycomb fungus. It has a distinctive pore surface that looks like an elongated honeycomb pattern. They're not oyster mushrooms though they look very similar. #mushrooms #mycology #foraging
A bit of a wee stowaway. Can you spot it?
So many times I’ve been surprised by the tiny photobombed I find when editing my mushroom pics. Pleasant surprises each time. 😊
