Frantically Fruiting Fungus - Part 1

in #mushrooms9 years ago (edited)

Living in the Pacific Northwest generally means mushrooms everywhere, though we are on the east side of the state in a drier climate, our farm has a perfect environment for mushrooms. The past month has been a roller coaster of temps with snow and cold early in the month and then the warmest Thanksgiving on record. The roller coaster has been the spur that has kicked the fungus into fruiting.

I took a walk around the property today and found easily 50 different types of fungus. This first part is 9 pictures, and the second will be 9 pictures. I could only get quality shots of a handful given the over growth and locations of most.

I have no clue what each mushroom is


But that is a fortuitous fly on the fungus
