If she’s anything like mine she’ll spit the mushroom and expect something nicer. And has a knack of getting it View attachment 90391

That's such a wonderful photo.

Today I saw some tiny (3cm tall) mushrooms which were pale lavender, a couple of tiny ones inside a hole in an oak which seemed to be glowing in the dark, and probably a beefstake mushroom on the same tree, about 20cm in diameter.

No idea what the other ones were, but they were cool to see.

And a fairy ring of mushrooms all around the same oak tree.

obviously some kind of boletus, the yellow instantly bruises a bluey green. Can anyone identify for me please, and is it edible? I fear its not.
Found in short grass, under Oak hazel and beech.

Hard to tell with that picture, though my money is on Suede Bolete

does this help any?

Starting to spot a few coming up now.


Blusher


Fly Agaric


Some kind of Roll-Rim


And a sorry looking Cep

 

[Chris]

Possibly an inkstain bolete (though not quite as vivid blue as I’d expect), or bitter beech bolete?

Nowhere near confident enough with that to give a firm answer, sorry!

Not sure on this one, but some type of oyster mushroom I presume. Growing in marshland, probably on willow but not certain.
Brought one back for a spore print to help identify it.

Loads of Fly Agaric about today. Also picked up some more Bay Bolete and a few sizeable Brown Birch Boletes for drying and powdering.

Thought for a moment I found a huge patch of chanterelles, but chopping one in half revealed them to be False Chanterelles. Sad.

Good few other mushrooms too.

Good haul. Do you ever find Orange Birch Boletes up there?

Got a beautiful spore print from this one.

I’ve not spotted any in these woods yet, keeping an eye out though. Would definitely prefer them to the Brown ones.

Cor, that’s superb!

Parasols are out in the park.

These are a first find for me. I am pretty certain they are fairy ring champignon. Any confirmation or correction welcome? x
