    @Oaktavia Loving this thread man! Already learning a lot. We have a few go to mushrooms here in Missouri. I grew up “mushroom hunting” with my grandpa in the spring for Morels. Love them fried. Can find chanterelles in my yard a lot under our oak trees. I need to expand my palette!

          @Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot Nice dude...is that particular fungus in any way related to lion's mane? I have found two of them growing on the same tree one year apart on my property but both times found them past due. The one fungus you posted is pretty cool looking, almost looks like coral.

            @Oaktavia from what I understand, same family - this one’s a coral tooth.

                This is an old pic but give you an idea of the kind of morels we can find around here. I like to forage for wild turkey in the springtime too 😉

                  @SKT I am incredibly envious over that morel and others you find. How is turkey season this year? Has it started?

                      @Oaktavia yep , the fall turkey season just started October 1st and goes through the end of the month. I use a bow and hunt for turkey and deer in the fall usually waiting until the first cool/cold front moves through. We are lucky here that the turkey population is really strong, although the last few years have been a little lean because of very wet Springs. It’s not uncommon to see flocks of 20-30 birds on our farm in the fall. I’ll post some pics if I can get any this year.

                          Are any of you amateurs foragers UK based? It's something I'd love to get involved in, but wouldn't know where to start!

                            I only found one big mama morel this year. I went out on a day I thought would be incredibly “fruitful” 😉 and found this within a minute. Unfortunately I didn’t find anything else the entire season?!?

                              @Smiladon that’s a nice one. Be fun to walk into a patch that size.

                                You got that right!
                                This was found in a place that was once like that. I still go there every year but it has never replicated the same experience as it did 20+ years ago. Found literally pounds that year, late 90s while still in high school.
                                It made a lifer out of me!
                                Just wish it would happen again.
