    After dinner this evening, I went out in the back yard to photograph some of the mushrooms that appear in late October in Pennsylvania.
    I wanted to catch them in the low light of early evening.
    Unless you know the variety of your local mushrooms and can be sure of that variety...... never eat what you are not positively sure of the variety. Wild mushrooms of certain varieties can kill you or damage your liver, even before symptoms are showing.
    The only mushroom that I harvest is a variety that a Slovakian friend of mine had picked for years and assured me they were safe to harvest and only if they grew at the base of an oak stump and grew in clusters. I find them very tasty and much better than the store bought mushrooms.
    If I see this type of mushroom at a location other than what my friend described, I leave it alone.
    After looking in my Audubon Society Field Guide to Mushrooms, I think (not sure) that the first mushroom pictures is called a "Fly Argaric Button Mushroom". The second is a "Granular Puff Ball". the rest, I don't know, but they sure are neat to see in the yard, especially when they grow in clusters.

      Love the pathway effect they've created in the last photo in particular, it looks like they're on a mysterious parade...
