The woods in the early fall are amazing (and it is probably my favourite time of the year to go there)! When the weather is not so hot anymore and it starts to rain more often the mushrooms are popping like crazy. I managed to catch the perfect combo recently in Poland. Stunning woods were calling me and I could not resist. Not even mosquitos, spiders and ticks could scare me off.
Yes - I have huge folder filled with fungi that will last me for while :)
The closest woods to my house is relatively young and besides some edible ones that I picked, it was filled with the large Amanitas. I just can't figure out which one is it. Google shows me similar images for Amanita brunnescens and Amanita pantherina. Any help is appreciated :)
Or is it not Amanita at all?
It doesn't even matter much what mushrooms it is. It was stunning with the flipped hat and exposed gills.
I mentioned the woods are great. Mostly pines with some lower bushes. Clean, with sin shining though and plenty of green moss around. And all that just 10 min walk from home :D
Looks like camera liked the little cones more 👇
