Ozark Mushrooms - Wood Ears

I love finding these guys. They're one of the few mushrooms I can readily identify. They're also edible! I have never had them but have heard of people putting them in egg-drop soup. Apparently they have a popping, crunchy texture when bitten.


Normally they feel rubbery. Almost gross.




















I hope you enjoyed this foray into the woods with me. These were all seen on a walk with @jakeimnotshure at Bacher's Access. Thanks for looking and stay tuned!
