Thank you for the invite. I may pop over. I was at Decoy today actually. There’s masses of Sulphurtuft about.

Beautiful Bay Bolete… reminds me of @paulstamets.bsky.social hat. #MushroomMonday
Imleria badia - Bay Bolete. Growing on a damp, mossy autumnal forest ground amongst fallen leaves and creeping Ivy tendrils.

Indeed. I spotted 9 or so. First I’ve seen this season. Sniffed a few, I always do, haha. It’s uncanny how potatoey they smell isn’t it?

Exactly this! Like spun copper/gold. They're so beautiful. I've always thought a handmade huge one would make a great lamp.

I've just found out about Joe Harkness. I illustrated his first book. We knew each other. He helped so many people. This is such sad news. RIP.

False chanterelles are orange inside and smell mealy. True chanterelles are pure white inside and smell sweet like apricots. You need to be 100% certain you know what you're picking when it comes to wild mushrooms.

How many foraged mushrooms would you say is a personal amount? I've always gone with 10%-15% of a patch tops. I've just seen someone emerge from the woods with 2, yes 2, bags for life filled TO THE BRIM with boletes. That's not a personal amount. That's a greedy bastard amount.

The False Chanterelle are popping up now. Hygrophoropsis aurantiaca. They look so pretty when they’re young… all fluffy and bright. 🧡 #MushroomMonday #FungiFriends

Vapourer eggs attached to the cocoon the wingless female crawled out of. First time I’ve seen this. VERY interesting! Well done, eyes. #eggs
