Wild and incredible photos of fungi, Olga, and your other wild life photos are so full of life!  The green mushroom looks 'evil' and the orange ones so 'fruity' - would like to know more about them  ::)

Thanks Robin and Cliff!

Robin,
All I know this mushrooms eat dead wood. Green Shrek's ears are eatable (if you can gather enough  :)).

Armin thanks! Yes, from Moscow forest and from forest in 100 km from Moscow where is my village situated.

Mark I make such kind of images by Canon 40D and macro-lens 100/2.8. Tripod and electric torch sometimes. How I find?  :D I look.  ;D I know they usually grow on dead mouldering trees. And look at them when we gather edible mushrooms. I am sure you can find the same things at your nearest forest because most of this fungi are worldwide. You just have to go to the darkest and moist forest.

Do not think my mushrooms are over.  8)

About edible mushrooms. Do you know that mushrooming is a national russian amusement like hunting or fishing? When mushroom time begin many people wear rubber boots, take baskets and drive or go to forests where spend all day. We gather many kinds of mushrooms. Some of them grow in big colonies and some apart.

This year I met legendary mushroom which is known like the best. In Russian it names Ryzhik. It could be eaten uncooked, roasted, boiled, marinaded or fermented. It has it’s own unique scent. It is rare and usually worm-eaten. But this year…
