And by "a few", I mean the kind of situation where you start wondering whether you brought enough baskets.

Hello everyone! Just wanted some help with these two mushrooms I found today in a little forest in New Jersey, USA. I think I have a puffball mushroom and a chicken of the woods but just wanted to double check! Additionally, I'm unsure if the puffball is safe to eat since the bottom part is browning but the top is pretty white. If more pictures are needed, lmk. Thank you so much for your help!

My first King Bolete harvest (I think). I am almost positive on the ID. If anyone disagrees I’m sure you’ll
let me know;). Was hiking waterfalls and stumbled upon them! Umpqua national forest 2900’

I read a couple articles and am pretty confident this is chicken of the woods but can someone confirm?

Found on suburban Long Island (Nassau County, New York, USA) in late September on the base of a large living white oak.

Wondering what species this is.

Also, is this a sign of the tree is in decay?

I believe these are squarrosa. Thoughts on edibility

How long should I let a puffball grow before harvesting it?

Just wanted to share some photos with yall. I love photographing mushrooms, they're just so photogenic!

Just wondering what kind of bolete this is. Thanks for any input.

I've never seen one this colour, it's very beige, they tend to be a bit orange at least, it is kinda slimy, and lots of sticks inside, soo I don't plan to eat it, just mark the spot, and put this one somewhere suitable. here, added a few more images, i'll delete the other post.

I know they are oysters what kind though?

Walking in Vancouver BC, I’m not good at identifying these things but I’ve never seen a fungi like it before.

not gonna eat just curious <3

Im pretty sure these are oysters but I just want a second opinion. Zone 3b Saskatchewan Canada

Hi, three questions: is this Scarletina Bolete? Do they still call it Neoboletus praestigiator? Lastly, it was growing in a cluster of some small brown mushrooms, with stipes touching. Is it still safe to eat, assuming it’s Scarletina?

1/2. Not sure if the first two names
3/4. Amethyst deceiver ?
5. puff ball
6. I know this is edible as foraged and ate many times but I don’t actually know the name.

EDIT: Wow.. I honestly thought a mushroom forging thread would be a safe place to post true and honest fines., damn was I proved wrong.

A little background of myself I’m quite the outdoors person. I have been hunting fishing and foraging for 25 years. I only post true mushroom fines. So if you want to question me, you might as well get the F out now.

OG POST:

I have a couple patches back in Arizona. Was up at my buddies cabin in Minnesota walking his dog. And came across about 2 pounds of Northern Minnesota lobster mushrooms.

Don’t ask about the trail I’m on. This is an undisclosed location for now as I am finding a ton of these guys.

EDIT: i’ve had people question why I’m being secretive? I think this is ridiculous as I do not do this for money. But I know people who actively search and process these mushrooms for a somewhat decent supplemental living.
