Morels, I think.


Morels, I think.

I discovered these, and about ten of their friends, growing under our porch yesterday after the Weekend Of Much Rain. I'm 99% sure they are delicious morels -- they look right, the timing and location are right...but I'm still not brave enough to collect mushrooms from my yard, especially since I've also got shitakes growing on a sanitized sawdust log in my bedroom. If you're local, and brave, and want to stop by in the next day or two and get them, feel free!

It's too bad they're under the porch. Otherwise you'd have the "morel high ground." *flies away very fast*

The next time someone accuses you of having no morels...

As an avid mushroom hunter up until recent years, I can say absolutely that those are indeed morels, and you should go out at once and collect them all, as there is no more delicious mushroom to be had in my humble opinion. I am soooooooo jealous that you have those there.

YUM! These are some of the tastiest 'shrooms ever!!

I'd bet my left kidney they are indeed morels. Lucky you indeed, as that means you'll probably get morels seasonally.

I hope someone goes to get them! It'd be a shame for them to go to waste. :)
