All this rain has been challenging for my environmental portraits...but the mushrooms -they're loveing it! While I tromp through the woods with my walking buddies (my 3 dogs) I am amazed at the incredible amount and variety of mushrooms -Everywhere- When Don, my Father-n-law said he was going to cook some chanterelles I became very interested. My Grandma used to pick them in Sweden ..she picked everything edible and decorative from the woods. I definitely inherited her foraging love but not her knowledge for edible mushrooms! I waited for Don to cook and eat what he believed was the Chanterelles. When I called him this morning and he was still - alive- and- with no gastrointestinal irritation I happily took him up on his offer for sauteed mushrooms with scrambled eggs! -Yummy!
This ,of course, is not a mushroom but I liked the tiny little spider sitting on the petal and found it surprising that an iris was still blooming at this time of the year.

This shroom is NOT a chanterelle I just liked the fact that the blueberry and mushroom were cozy together!
