  1. No. this'll sound funny, but I always hate to pick them. I wanna leave'em be unless there are a ton, then I don't feel so bad. I'll get better pics next time I'm unsure.
  2. Nice shot on the Fly Agaric! I haven't seen one in person yet. I saw this beast the other day though, a whole bunch: Amanita calyptroderma (Coccora is common name, which I'd be interested to know what 'coccora' means if anyone knows)
  3. I think I have a similar cluster right now...I'll see if I can get a pic. So, I think these are 'Little Gyms': Gymnopilus penetrans. Doesn't look like yours, and it fit with Audubon description; especially when it said the flesh tastes bitter. I tasted some and it definitely was bitter. Very yellow flesh, and smooth cap; different from the pic you took. So yours could be Honey Mushrooms, cause they don't look like little gyms.
  4. Hi All, I have been identifying mushrooms for fun over the past few years; never even crossed my mind to do so in the past. One day when on a walk in the Smith River National Forest, Nor Cal, I caught the bug. SO, these aren't great pics for identifying, but I thought I might get lucky. The best guess I've had looking in the Audubon Society book is 'Salmon Wax Cap'. But I don't think so. Anyone recognize these right off? I'll try and take better pics in the future. I'm thinking of joining this forum community, as I like looking up mushrooms and I often need help. How do you all like it? Do you find it helpful? With Bows, GoneGone p.s. there were chanterelles and pig's ear not more than six feet away if that helps with the identification.
