What amazing and superbly photographed, a real treat. I'm always on the lookout but the only one I've seen locally from those above, is the little cup fungus filled with tiny white discs.

Amazing and beautiful photographs, Olga.
I am wondering how many of these beauties are edible.

Olga,

Breathtaking pictures.  So beautifully clear and perfect.  Thank you so much for showing us, and to Maggi for shifting these into their own thread where we can find them again later on.

Just wonderful!!  :o :o

A little more about edible mushrooms. There are some species which appears in early spring. They look strange and funny but you can eat them after boiling in two waters.

Very nice,Olga. Mushrooms are both in forests and gardens. These are happy in my garden on a cut birch tree. No idea about the names but the first are said to be edible. My neighbours try to convince me to eat them. I didn't dare to yield to the temptation

Oleg nice to meet you here!  :D

The second one are edible. Это осенние опята. But it is not good to have this kind of mushrooms in the garden. They kill trees. And not only trees! I saw them on peony and Polystichum setiferum which dead next year.

The first one is one of Чешуйчатка species. I am not sure it is edible.

Where else can moscovites speak with each other? SRGC Forum!
Thank you, Olga, for advice. The tree is anyway dead but I didn't realise it can be dangerous for other plants. Hope to see you in spring.

Olga,
Where have you been hiding ??  ;D
I only discovered this thread just now and I'm flabbergasted.
Some of the most beautiful pix of fungi I have ever seen - I'd never thought there are so many an so different species on the planet !
Some look extraterrestrial !!!  :o :o :o
Wonderful report and good to learn something about everyday Russian life !! (hunting mushrooms and washing them down...  ;D)
Thanks very very much for showing !!

Why in spring? I am not going to fall in hibernation.  :)

Luc
Thank you!
About washing down... I do not like it really.  :) And it could be really dangerous with some fungi. For example dung mushroom is edible but isn't compatible with alcohol.
