Mushroom hunting is fun but can be a tad exhausting. They are hard to spot, especially when you've not found many where you are looking. They don't grow in particular spots. Oh you might think you know what they grow around or what trees they may grow under, so you spot these things and hike up the hills and through the creek only to find they aren't there. So I wonder if my hunches are true. But I try to mentally note what the area is made up of when I do find one. Although I am tired and my body is aching from roaming up and down and all around about 15 acres or more I'm not giving up. They are here somewhere. I will try again maybe tomorrow evening and for sure next weekend.
Morel Mushroom
Fiddlehead
Violets
Bellwort
This is the first time I have ever seen the Bellworts. Things flower and then finish flowering so fast in the woods that if you turn around twice you'll miss something. Last weekend I didn't have my camera when the Trout Lillies were blooming and this weekend they were pretty much done. I love knowing where all these flowers are in patches of our woods and adore the fact that I can take the time and care enough to venture out to see it all.
