Shroom, Shrooms Nature Friday


There they were, in our yard, try holding a leashed dog that is ready to walk and lean way down to get photos of mushrooms.
Nearly hurt my back taking the photos and then
I almost got Mouse Shoulder again searching for photos of these to identify them.
 Link provided if anyone want to try and identify them. I gave up.

I decided I don't give a shiitake! 

I could not find them exactly and there are dozens of almost like these to pick from HERE

    They almost look more like toadstools. Many toadstools are poisonous, so don't let Big Boy eat or lick them.

    I do think it is one of the Boletus family - but may not be the edible version... so not touchy! YAM xx

    Hello,

    I love finding the mushrooms. These are pretty and colorful.
    I've only been seeing the big white mushrooms on the lawns.
    Take care, enjoy your day! Wishing you a happy weekend!

    Oh, Shitaki! I would love to have one to examine it. Does it have gills or is it a polypore... which would not guarantee identifying it, but would narrow the field.

    You are so funny!! I don't know what kind of mushrooms they are and I guess I don't give a shiitake either :D

    Funny 😁 girl! I've no idea, but remember a Brownies' hike where one of the adults said to watch for wild mushrooms: the more colorful they were = the most poisonous. I think it was several decades before I dated to eat a mushroom!

    Wow! This closeup almost looks like aliens have landed and multiplied! I am impressed that you were able to get it at ground level.

    Yes, me and squatting down to take pictures is not a pretty sight...but sometimes you do what you gotta do...
    They do look like toadstools that little fairies live beneath.
    Don't let BIg eat them though...don't know if they are poisonous or not.
    Temp is suppose to be 103F today and then it goes up from there...ugh...it's even mildly humid too...
    Thinking of you today as I do my shorter stint at Lynne's.

    You had me at shitake, I actually laughed out loud. Great eye-level photos! Mushrooms are delicious! I have seen people picking them out in the woods for taking home for dinner, but would never trust myself to do that. Mother used to buy field mushrooms that were big and flat, and the size of dinner plates at the old greengrocer in town. Incredibly delicious and at that size they fed the whole family as a side.
