Mushroom Hike and Class

Those spots on Maple leaves are actually mushrooms

These mushrooms "bleed" a red color when broken

This guy knows a lot about mushrooms!  He's even named a few!

These berries are edible, who knew?

This is the variety I found and brought to the table

The mushroom that the lobster mushroom usually takes over

We all took a nibble off this mushroom which was spicy!

My parents invited me to take a mushroom walk/class with them in Granite Falls last weekend.  It was put on my the Audubon Society and they had an expert leading the class.  He was super knowledgeable and I learned a couple new edible species and a bunch of mushrooms that I'll never remember the names to.  All in all, a fun day.
