I am now a card-carrying member of the Boston Mycological Club. It's about time. I've been torturing my friends and family with my mushroom obsession for years, and now I can consort among my own kind. I still bring my family out on walks, though. Don't think I don't. Here are some pretty mushrooms we found on our foray, as well as a few other things.
Violet cort? (poisonous)
Yellow fly agaric? (poisonous)
Milk caps? (poisonous, no doubt)
Frog! (non-poisonous, hopefully)
And let's not forget this interesting find:
Ah, yes, the envy of all the other trees.
And that concludes this edition of Forest Porn!
Took me a while to get the tree picture, although my mind is usually in the gutter. Maybe it's 'cause I was a little grumpy. But when I did, it made me giggle out loud at work!
Pretty pictures, thanks for sharing!

It's been a seriously great season for mushroom stalking here in New Hampshire ... Wish I knew more about what's edible and what's not ...
As for the tree .... hmmm!
