I found a Dryad’s Saddle on my run the other day, the mushroom I had always wanted to find! 🍄 Apparently, they’re quite common, but somehow I had never come across one before. So when I spotted this large

... Madre de Cacao. Inedible due to their tough, leathery texture, these fungi still play a vital role in decomposing wood to feed the forest floor. #fungi #wildmushrooms #dbuzzph Posted via D.Buzz

One pastry that has always impressed me is the croissant. A few times, I’ve read baking books and planned to try making it, but I never quite found the courage because it looks challenging and very time

It’s been really warm around this time, and even though I drink plenty of water during the day, the sweating still makes you lose a lot of fluids and electrolytes. So it feels really good to have a warm,

So earlier this evening, I did my usual walk and, though I thought my previous blewit find was just luck due to the autumn-like weather (as they can sometimes appear briefly), on my walk today I found

I’ve recently become interested in proper photography, so it took me a while to understand all the formats, settings, and terminology. Some of the Hivers here are incredibly skilled, and I thought I’d

Based on this mushroom calendar I made last week, velvet shank is just past its peak. When I went for a foraging walk yesterday, here’s what I found: A cluster of velvet shank, just past its prime. There

After days of heavy rain, the ground around here has been soaking wet, and fungi hunting would be a challenge. Knowing I wouldn’t be able to find any here, my kind brother sent me some surprises from my

It was a frosty day, and I decided to head out for a fungi hunt. As I stepped outside, my two kitties trotted after me, eager to join, even though I hesitated at first because of the cold.

I whooshed out to the woods today unprepared, with just my phone and camera. It was a crisp autumn afternoon, and I never thought I would spend longer than usual there. Accidental shot, but cool. At 3

Just as I freed myself from a few tasks today, I hurried into the woodland for a fungi hunt. It was already starting to get dark, and the whole day had been gloomy anyway. As usual, my kitty Blu sensed

I’m not a mushroom person; I won’t be sad if I never eat one again. But I like seeing them along a trail and while just wandering around the woods. I came upon this one, possibly a King Bolete, on a recent

The weather has gone cooler and autumn is approaching. After a few days of rain followed by sunshine, I was expecting to see some fungi sprouting! With an excited anticipation, I walked along the path

After the cooler weather, we eventually had a few mushrooms sprouting around here this time. I spotted a couple of species on my fungi hunt today! As I passed by this small, low bank, I spotted a few clusters

One day I went to the park to clear my head for a while. Nothing special, I just needed some fresh air and some silence. There was plenty of shade, the grass was tall in some corners, and I could smell

After a couple of days of decent rainfall, I waited two days and headed out for a fungi hunt, hoping some mushrooms had sprouted. As we're in the middle of a very dry season, I didn't expect to see anything.

Everything is dry in the forest. Rain is very rare this year, and I notice it clearly as I walk along familiar paths. Even the mushrooms, which so desperately need moisture, are now fighting for survival.

I don't usually use images in Google Image Search to understand what I've photographed, because I'd say I know a bit about nature. At first, I thought it was insect material. It never occurred to me that
