Fungus Amongus

[HobieMarty]

With all the rain we have had lately I have noticed quite a variety of mushrooms in my backyard and decided to post a few pics of them for your viewing pleasure. Are there any fungus experts here that can identify these 'shrooms?

Cool variety of mushrooms you've got there!

I think the second and fourth pic are the same shroom. I found two of them yesterday while walking in the woods. I think it's a Leucocoprinus Birnbaumii based on the search with lens I did yesterday. Google Images says the sixth pic is a Rhodotus palmatus know as the "wrinkled peach". I send pics like those to my "Mushroom Mentor" for identification.

My handbook indicates the pic 2 and 4 to be amanitas (Powder cap Amanitas)

Many mushrooms will be enough to feed you for the rest of your life!

With a lot of mushrooms, that would not take very long

Yep!

That last one is really cool looking. Looking through my handbook, it looks like it could be a Black and White Clitocybula.

While walking the woods with my MM, he happened across a "devils urn" which is really cool looking

This looks like some sort of Amanita sp, white one near the end looks a bit like Amanita phalloides

Wash your hands with soap and water if you touch any of these things

I saw some one time that were little black tubes that were open at the top, I think they were called "Devil's Chimney". I haven't seen any more of them though.

This is interesting and not something that I'm going to taste.

I love watching this channel. The guy that is behind the camera (owner of the channel) is always interesting and entertaining.

A couple from our property, multiple pics of the same 2 types.







I haven't seen any here at our place, but I love birds nest fungus.

Never forgot that...

Cool pics, though. Thanks for that.

I prefer mushrooms to be on my plate vs in my yard or the forest.

Linguini & wild black trumpets with a sauternes butter sauce and chives. A favorite. Hen of the woods are common around here too.

That's the devil's urn I mentioned in my reply. Those things are cool looking.

I thought they might be the same but wasn't sure. I have a picture of them somewhere, I'll have to look for it.

I never noticed them before but my Mushroom Mentor pointed it out while we were walking around in the woods looking for potential Morel spots.

I'm trying to learn more about foraging. I don't know why, but it fascinates me. I'm lucky to have found an experienced grower/forager to teach me more about mushrooms and foraging in general. It's a fun hobby.

I saw these two this morning. The little one looks so dainty like a tiny umbrella.
