Meppstas 4,956 Posted June 1, 2016 Report Share Posted June 1, 2016 With two months still to go before the trout season opens I go for walks in the rain forests looking for & photographing the variety of Fungi that grows in them. They only last a few days so it's a matter of being there at the right time.. Here's a few photos that I took last week....

Meppstas 4,956 Posted June 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2016 I have no idea what happened when i edited the top reply, as when I added some more photos from today's trip it said I didn't have permission to edit it, So I tried it again and it came up with the same thing. Now when I went back to it all the photos are there twice.???? Any way these are from today's trip and also a photo of Mt.Roland close to home, making the most of the beautiful days we've had over the past four days.. cheers Adrian Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm pretty keen in tagging along with someone who knows what is tasty? Not after any of that 'magic' stuff, been there, done that! Picked some Pine Mushys during the week. Pan fired in butter with pepper, and brandy flambé on toast .....just gotta get your head around their crazy orange look . Meppstas 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Meppstas 4,956 Posted June 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 My doctor & his wife ) both Russians) go out picking all different varieties of mushrooms, he bought photos of them up on google and showed me what they pick. Some looked like toadstools, he said you have to know what you're looking for and if you're unsure then don't pick it.. Chief and lofty64 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

brenton 637 Posted June 3, 2016 Report Share Posted June 3, 2016 only do the magic stuff once IMO and that was one time too many,don't do much foraging these days due to a crap knee but i still get out on the flats for a feed when things are right. cheers b Meppstas 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Meppstas 4,956 Posted March 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2017 On my walk back to the car yesterday after a spin session in the Meander River (report to come soon) I came across a couple of Fungi something I love taking photos of. The bottom photo of the fungi was taken on the side of a steep hill I had to crawl up to get back from the river up to the roadway before getting back to the car at the end of my fishing session.. cheers Adrian BarneyB, Yorky, projoe and 3 others 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
