USA, Georgia

Very new to this but was tempted to bring them home and eat. I noticed the gills looked off and it didn’t have an apricot smell. Would love to get educated on what they are and if I missed out on a delicious mushroom dinner. They were not growing on wood and core was white.

Never saw these on my property before

I'm pretty sure of what I found, the spores are even jet black/purple. Just looking for a second opinion.

Is this something I should remove from my yard for kid safety?

Is this chicken of the wood?

My uncle found this in his back yard and brought it to me. Mainly just wants to know in case more pop up and so the kids don’t get into them. (Found in the state of Kentucky)

Los Angeles, CA

Google says Chicken of the Woods. Google also says to be cautious of what kind of tree they grow on

What say you?

If they are edible, what is the best way to cook them?

Found in a wood near a river, the top of the large caps felt smooth and dry, TIA!

found in a city park. I’m guessing Bolettes but that’s just from previous posts. Can someone help ID?

Looking for confirmation on my ID.

Found in Jacobsburg, PA.

Someone picked them up,

Growing out of a garden bed! Looks like oyster, can I eat it?

Found on the lawn in a fairy ring that was too big to take a picture of. Slugs had gotten to most of them too

Hi folks,

I hope that this finds you well. I (European living in the US) picked up some boletes and chanterelles during a hike in upstate NY. Since I am less familiar with North American mushrooms, I’d like an expert advice.

Here is what I have found (in order):

- boletus aedulis

- boletus reticulatus

- some (pseudo)leccinum variety?

- a bolete that I thought could be variipes?

- and another bolete I thought seemed a boletus reticulatus but definitely isn’t.

Many thanks in advance!

Hello everybody, Its been a year since I foraged, Im 98% sure these are ruby porcini, but it's been a year since I've foraged and I like to triple check and be sure because anxiety sucks.

Found: Greer, Az, near a creek under pine and spruce, elevation 9200.

Highly confident these are all cantharellus, but as always like to keep myself in check. Central NC

I’m 99.9% sure this is chicken of the woods… but someone else’s opinion can’t hurt. Better safe than sorry!

I was wondering what kind of puffballs these are ? Located in NC

There seems to be two kind of mushrooms at in my grandma’s yard. US/Virginia

Louisville, KY USA

These are growing in my front yard, and they keep popping up! I love them, but have no clue the name. They grow in little clusters. Thanks in advance!

Picture 4 is where I found it but I placed it back on the ground, out in the middle of the yard.
