those are delicious. cook them with white wine and cream and they taste like lobster or crab.

my guess is they are the same but the first pic was taken when they were older. though the second pic kind of looks like jack-o-lanter mushrooms, if they glow in the dark you would know for sure. my other guess would be sulphur mushroom (Laetiporus sulphureus). there is a euc next to the highway...

found this lion's mane (Hericium erinaceus) on the job the other day. tastes like crab if cooked right. i made a simple pasta alfredo to go with it, yum. the other (amanita) you obviously dont want to eat, but its very pretty.

did you eat the chanterelles? i havent seen much down here since the last rain. overcast today for the first time in a week, maybe a new crop on the way.

cool. if anyone is interested this is a really nifty program for identifying pacific northwest mushrooms. http://s158336089.onlinehome.us/Ian/MatchMaker20HD.htm there is also an online version: http://forestry-dev.org/cgi-bin/matchmaker/MatchMaker.asp

the first pic i haven't identified yet, some kind of agaricus i think. i tend to avoid those. funny, i like the oysters for the same reason you dislike them. i love iding the things i find in the woods, and i really get a kick out of finding wild edibles.

any other mycophiles around here? i know you guys in the snow dont have much action right now, but here in nor cal the season is just getting started. post some pics! ill start with these from today.
