Mushroom foraging.

There’s an app for everything so I assume there will be one for mushrooms. But you presumably need to wash them carefully as they might have been sprayed by passing canines or wind borne spray from weed killer.
 
More home growns this morning. *Dunno what they are but they were delicious. Very strong flavour.

*Just found the leaflet. Poplar field caps.
 
Omg just cut the grass, first time in about 4 weeks.....found these....just had them on toast and I don't feel good :sick:
You seem to have survived!
Just found these on the grass verge. The one on the left looks a bit like yours, but there's at least 2 types. Looking on the web to see if they're edible.

I didn't really eat mine I dont like mushrooms, I just lawn mowered over them :oops:
 
I'm trying to remember what TV show it was, but I remember a story from a University Professor who had gone to the pub after eating some mushrooms (can't remember if he'd picked them, or was studying them). Anyway, he got to the pub and started feeling a bit iffy, and he just had time to write the name of the mushrooms on a post-it note, stuck it to himself, and then his vision turned completely blue and he passed out. Fortunately they called an ambulance for him and the paramedics got his message!! :LOL:

Yeah, I remember that. He was given them by some students who had been studying them and had some left over.
 
Getting near to foraging time. Mushrooms and chestnuts. Came across this lot this morning but with Mrs Mottie beside me, I had to give them a miss or she would have beaten them out of my hand. :ROFLMAO:
