I'd love to find some fiddleheads. Saw something that kind of looked like them but didn't have the "paper" associated with fiddleheads. Plus, many of them were uncurled far too much to be gathered.

My fiddlehead finds have been a rare treat.

Only 9 yesterday. Left tiny guys. Backed out didn't want step on any. I think I'll wait a few more days. I'm finding our windy weather this winter has take out a good portion of my host trees.

Hobler, Looks like we are in for a dry week. I probably won't get out till the weekend. Thanks for the report, it reaffirms my belief that it is early.

Went out back today to check on some earlier finds and got 47. Some were starting to dry. This warm weather has me worried.

A quick catch last night. These were in a place that I've been harvesting for years. They are under Poplars, the only place and time I find them under said trees.

Well went to a pg today found at least 50 under one tree many still to small yet n still in good condition.

Hobler, That cluster is a pretty sight!

Found 25 under a half dead apple in PG. They were small. I am afraid the season is going to peak and decline rapidly with the slow start and now this heat. Wouldn't be the first time that morels proved me wrong albeit. Enjoy the hunt.

This weekend is the time to get out there and looking in earnest.They are becoming more numerous and less invisible due to size and coloring. Look for the tree not the morel. good luck, enjoy the hunt!

Nice! What a pretty sight!

Went out for 3 hours today, walked 5.7 miles and found 11 yellows. That's 1.9 morels per mile. Reminded me of my early days when I would walk all day with nothing to show for it. Going to keep on walking though, all it takes is one tree to turn the season around.

Hobler, How is your tally compared to last year at this point of the season? I have but a quarter of last years total. Better days ahead!
