During this season, I use to go in the forest to search mushrooms (especially the excellent porcini) with my mom one time every week. Just one time, but every time it's a very long walk for about 4-5 hours and when I came back at home my old bones need to stay relaxed on the sofa ^_^
As you can see in the first pic, when I went in the forest, I have a little basket with me. Yes, the same little basket I use for my oil colors (tubes) when I work. ^_^
My mom has a bigger basket, but just because she's a very good seeker.
Me and my mom love to search porcini mushroom, because it's like a scavenger hunt! You have to have very good eye, because this kind of mushroom has the same colors of the leaves fallen down and so it's not so simple to see.
I took some pics of some porcini I found:
The first one was a big one, but I was lucky to find it, because it was under a lot of leaves and when I was walking close to it the wind blows and so I could see it ^_^
Well, it's all for now,
good night to everyone and see ya soon!
