Cindy and I found a crop of moral a few days ago!!
I'd never see it before, we stuffed them with goats cheese and chives and baked them

I think I've just come across some. Spent the last half an hour checking between a few books and I think I've got it right. I'm not going to eat them though as not 100% sure.
Not had any yet (I'm checking too) but think I've got a load in my garden. And found a giant puffball which should be perfect in a day or two.
I'm doing well this year! Morels and St. Georges in the garden and a puffball outside the back gate! :-D

I've dried most of the morels and if I can do the same with the St. Georges, they'll be coming with me to the Dartmoor meet to go in my stews.
The puffball won't last long. Some fresh homemade ciabatta, a glass of chilled chardonnay de venezi and puffball slices gently sauteed in welsh butter with a mear hint of garlic!
Unless some little :***: puts their foot thru it like happed last year!!! :evil:
Why do parents tell their kids to destroy ANY fungi they see!? Don't they realise they represent our perks for being bushcrafters?

I got a definite ID on mine, which is good. 
Been to see the folks this weekend and my Dad is an avid mushroom forager. We went for a walk on Sunday and found loads of St. Georges. (at least 60!). Apparently last year was very dry and my Dad hardly found anything so maybe that's why there's so many this year.
We thought we found 2 small Honey Fungi but after we did a spore print back at the house we identified them as Sulphur Tufts. Shame.
We also found a ring of what we think are Agaricus macrosporus. Not 100% though.

Tried to harvest my St.Gs last night. Nextdoors cats had been using half of them as a landing pad from the 8ft fence and the rest were swarming with slugs... :-(
