Lobsters

There is a complicated story concerning this particular mushroom, which explains its existence. It’s a parasite of another fungus..maybe Ryan can comment with the explanation. Nonetheless, once identified, they are one of the most exciting mushrooms to search out. I suppose the name comes from the cooked lobster colour.

I think they are one of the most beautiful mushrooms, they vary in size and shape considerably. We sliced them thin and dried them.

It looks like it just might rain today, and if it does, it could be the start of Chanterelle season. We did find a few Chanterelles last evening, but you can tell there are millions just waiting for the fall rain to pop up.
