On prior visits, I had seen a few mushrooms here and there, scattered about the property. They must have been pretty hardy, since my prior visits were in early Spring and late Fall, judging by the number of mushrooms I saw this time. I know nothing about mushroom identification, so if any readers know what kind of mushrooms these are, please let me know!<\/p>\n

This one looks like someone spilled cocoa on the top of it, doesn’t it?<\/p>\n

\"Mushroom1.jpg\"<\/p>\n

A view of the same mushroom from the side – the shot came out pretty well, considering that I just held the camera close to it and pressed the button!<\/p>\n

\"Mushroom2.jpg\"<\/p>\n

This one seemed to be pretty common – I saw quite a few of these guys ….<\/p>\n

\"Mushroom3.jpg\"<\/p>\n

Same one, from the side …<\/p>\n

\"Mushroom4.jpg\"<\/p>\n

I remember this one as being rather small, but isn’t it gorgeous?<\/p>\n

\"Mushroom5.jpg\"<\/p>\n

I don’t suppose this is a mushroom as we usually identify them, but it is a fungus of some sort. On the other hand, mushrooms are fungi, so what is this particular fungus called? Yellow is my favorite color, can you tell?<\/p>\n

\"Mushroom6.jpg\"<\/p>\n

I don’t remember seeing this kind growing anywhere else except on rotten trees – I never saw it growing out of the ground, though I don’t know if that makes any difference or not.<\/p>\n

\"Mushroom7.jpg\"<\/p>\n

A view of the same mushroom from the top. Isn’t it interesting how some mushrooms have split caps and others are perfectly round and intact?<\/p>\n

\"Touchstone<\/p>\n

This one isn’t from Floyd County – it is from Fayette County, Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n

\"Touchtone<\/p>\n

Is that bits of oatmeal on the top of it? Perfectly round and not a blemish on it. I went back a few hours later and someone had trampled on it – I’m glad I got a picture of it!<\/p>\n

\"Touchstone<\/p>\n

Not only is the top cupped, but it is split – it is curious how mushrooms are differently shaped. This one is also from Fayette County, Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n

While wandering around on my property one day, I watched a squirrel scamper up a big oak tree with something white in its mouth. Curious, I watched intently until the squirrel looked at me. It had a big mushroom in its mouth! I had no idea that squirrels ate mushrooms ….<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
