Show me your fungus!

What a collection! Did you inoculate oyster mushrooms on the elm tree or did they show up naturally?

I have quite a few wild mushrooms but they are not edible.

The oysters just showed up randomly. It is in fact the reason I started down the rabbit hole of edible fungus.

It is incredible the distance spores can travel!

What a pleasant surprise from leaving the snag in place!

I round up some pictures of funky mushrooms spotted in my yard. Most of them are non-edible, except for wood ear and probably reishi, but I never tried the latter. I also bought plugs of shiitake mushrooms to inoculate oak logs. The oldest logs are 5 years old and are still producing sparingly.

I just spotted these in my backyard. It seems like they popped up overnight. I have no clue what kind they are.

You wouldn't know it from the picture, but the spot where they are growing is where the previous owner buried his dog right before I took over. Nothing grew in that area for the first year, which was surprising because every other part of the property is constantly being taken over by various weeds and volunteer plants (My neighbor says it is because the dog was evil.). I like to think the mushrooms are a good sign that the soil there is bouncing back from the dry, cracked earth it was when I moved in.
