Squirrel Fest 2022 has come and gone. Did get out and find my first chanterelles, they were quite tasty. Found lots of interesting fungi

What are the yellow cap with orange middle and are they edible

Are you referring to the pic immediately above your post? Those are chicken of the woods (Laetiporous sulfureus), and they are incredibly edible! Here's one way to fix them. Mind you, even though they are edible, some people have a reaction to polypore mushroom. So, if you find some, eat only a very small amount the first time.

Notice that these are from the Pacific Northwest and are Laetiporous conifericula. The two types I''ve found in NE Ohio are Laetiporous sulfureus, and Laetiporous cincinnatus.

Found a 20 lb chicken this last weekend!!!!

This was the cluster on one side of the tree. Almost an identical size cluster was on the opposite side! A third cluster was above- much smaller and some animals had been feeding off of it so it was almost gone

I'm having trouble getting photos from my phone onto the website I want to show y'all this weird chanterelle I found this summer hopefully I can get this figured out

 

[HeartlandFungivore]

It would be much more worthwhile if I could get my videos of this thing to load. Although it looks like multiple mushroom heads it ended in one large base. I ate the dang thing and the flavor was like 10x better than the average chanterelle. I reached out to these mushroom hunters overseas in Turkey that I've found online that seem like experts. They thought it might be a deformed 'Ashen Chanterelle' It's definitely not a horn of plenty and it's definitely not a pig's ear. Anyone on here have some ideas? I'll try to get some videos to post tomorrow

One more photo of me with the load of chickens

Holy crap! I've only seen something like that one time in my life. I took pics, so let me see if I can find it.

I can't believe I found it! I have so many pics stored and it's hard for me remember where they all are and how to search for them. And, I found these from about 250 yards away. I had design to hunt a creek valley for these mushroom and found a high spot where I could use binoculars to glass the valley. Since chickens are so brightly colored, I figured that they would easy to spot, and they were!

Just Right

We are predicted to have rain the next three days. Hopefully that will get the hens going, because they aren't going yet.

 

[HeartlandFungivore]

I found some early hens a little over a week ago but they were already covered in larvae. Anyone have any advice for this situation? Was a major bummer! They were bright orange larvae that jump chaotically and it's like there's millions of them over the whole shroom

I'm thinking Rambo, would have pull his Knife out and cut off some big/Buggy/ juicy mouthful bites
