Daily Photo ~ 4-26-11


Hide and Seek
In my part of world, hunting in the woods for mushrooms is a way of wife. We eat only the ones sold at the grocery store since we cannot tell the good ones from the bad. Do any of you know if these are edible or not? They are growing beside our barn where we keep our mulch pile.

  1. Don's mom could go out in the woods and pick mushrooms in her day but I'm too scared to eat something she picks now that her eyes are not as good...lol...Don said they were really wrinkled looking.

  3. No idea of whether they're edible, but I love the treatment. Very earthy.

  4. Such an interesting picture. I stick with the ones from the store--you just "never know"! Mickie :)

  5. This photo shows up the texture of the mushrooms quite well. I have no idea what is safe - hate the little beggars. Yet, strangely, I like to look at them, just not eat them!

  7. I would never eat these if I didn't know if it was safe. Recently I read about a man who died by eating poissend mushrooms. Don't take the risk, I should say.

  8. I love mushrooms but have never known how to identify them. I do know people who can but I'd be too scared. I love to photograph them and your shot is great.

  10. Great shot. Even me can not differentiate them and we buy only at the stores.

  11. The shape looks like Japanese shiitake mushroom, but without colors I have almost no idea. You must be careful about poisoning. Fantastic B&W photo with a nice title "hide and seek."
