Since last summer I noticed a lot of herbs and mushrooms bloomed earlier than normal, starting with the goldenrod. I even found a lions mane much sooner than normal~ makes me wander if morels will come early. All this rain, butter cups already sprouting here in North Alabama. Thoughts~

Going to check my 3 best early spots on Saturday (25th). Thinking 50/50 that i may spot a morel or 2 with the warm temps this week. Everything Dallas and eastward to the Atl Ocean has plenty of moisture. My avg first finds in metro Bham have run Mar 6-11th, and thats only a 14 year avg. This year definitely seems to be somewhat early, but that could be Feb 25 for me or March 5, still havent fully figured them suckers out ,hunting since 1970, but at least Ive come to realize that and respect it…..Stasiak are you out there brother..
Timmy! This warm weather has me thinking they will be up early. Been scouting some areas on my way to and from work and will probably go out this weekend.

All ya'll AL hunters need to listen to Timmy. He knows the pattern and has been spot on since I moved here in 2018. And even in my darkest days...dude dropped a lb of fresh morels in my hands.

Found 4 today. Still looking for a consistent area. Timmy has them all lol. BTW, Timmy found those 50 and was nice to enough to drop me a couple few (in the bowl). Thanks, bro, they were delicious!
