Found these on a walk.

[Herb & Suds]

There aren't a whole lot of known edible mushroom varieties in the summer. Chanterelles would be the most common.

I think it depends on location
We pick oysters,boletes and inkys in the summer months then hen of the woods and chickens in the fall and of course these in the spring
But when I was younger and looking for a mescaline high we took to the cow patty’s

I take my husky on night hikes during the summer, and mushrooms standout hard under a flashlight. It's like they are 3D and the rest of the forest floor is 2D. I took these pictures tonight.

 

[lusidghost]

Does anyone know if the first two pictures are chanterelles? I'm almost positive the first one is, but I'm not sure about the second one because it's fleshy-pink colored. The structure looks almost identical though. I've never foraged or eaten chanterelles before.

I also wonder if the third picture would make me trip. That blue is awfully trippy.

Eat them......if you die or shit yourself you know that they aren't

They look like they could be Golden Chanterelles. That's all I'm going to say just off going by a picture. I'd have to know the surroundings where they were found and smell them. I haven't been out for awhile but I've picked tons of Chanterelles in the past. Mostly the orange ones. They cover the forest floor during the fall in the Oregon coast range. They're one of the only mushrooms I'll pick and eat because they are easily identifiable. If I can't identify it by sight and smell then I'm not eating it.

If you eat that third one make sure you have a liver lined up for the transplant you're going to need. That looks like a Death Cap.

I'm in the east, so there is probably a bit of a difference. I've always heard that your area is the mecca for mycologists.

I read that there are false chanterelles, but they are about the same as false morels as far as being easily identifiable. I don't know about the pink flesh one, but I think I may go back and collect the golden ones.

Actually that's not a Death Cap but some other Amanita. You still don't want to eat it. The high might only last for the few minutes before you go into serious convulsions and need to be transported to the hospital.

Yeah I'm not eating that thing. It's pretty though.

 

[lusidghost]

I've seen a lot of classic red and white amanitas this summer. I don't think I've ever seen one until this year.

It was crazy years ago. There would be buyers setup along the roads for pickers to sell to. People were literally shooting others over mushroom spots for Matsutake. That's another one I'll pick.

I've been in the woods with nothing but orange Chanterelles as far as I could see. I didn't have enough bags, time, or the desire to pick anymore. Walked out stepping on them. That was one year that was really good. It's not always like that though. Some years you can search and search and find nothing.

One time I was foraging for morels deep in the woods when I ran into a middle aged guy. It was close to sundown and I was on my way out, but he kept trying to get me to go check out his "secret spot." He seemed like a nice guy, but no one shows others their secret spots and the guy was very insistent. I got sketched out towards the end of our little interaction and was almost rude about turning down his offer. I noticed that he didn't have a bag to hold the mushrooms. He was just out walking around like a psychopath.

I still wonder if he planned on murdering me. Running into anyone in the woods is creepy, but when they are being overly kind it makes it even more so.

First one are chanterelles. Tasty. Decond one, don´t know, probably chanterelles as well. Third is some kind of amanita, would not eat it, poisinous. Fourth is "boletus", delicious. Fifth never seen. Sixth don´t know. Other is Lycoperdon, not eadible. Then Macrolepiota, many "strains", some are edible, but second grade by me. Last one is Russula , again, some are edible, but this one not.

That first pic is a scaly vase chant it wont kill you but not advised to eat.

Could be, hard to say just from the picture.
