Safest way mate. Hints of yellow on the stalk and cap by the looks, cut or bruise the edge of the cap, cut base of the stalk as GL did in First Mushroom thread. Nice bit of mixed wood land you seem to have there should throw up some good stuff. Cheers Arry

Cooler today only 11 degrees, nice. Going to try with the ferrets tomorrow, up till now it hasn't been much fun at all in the heat. Been trying to do woods and copse to stay out of the sun but fast running out them, been to hot for breaking in hedges. Cheers Arry

Very close to me mate, I don't have any perms out that way any more. Even traveling haven't seen any out that way, not saying there not there. Talking with friends and farmers the other day at at an event we were all saying the same thing only few about. Still nice to hear there are some close by and will keep an eye out. Cheers Arry

Birch Polypore mate A very investing fungi, It is edible but very bitter. Iv'e tried soaking in salt water also tried soaking in milk still not good. Iv'e said before in one of the other mushroom threads, its anti cancer, anti septic can be used a Elastoplast, you could carry a hot ember in it apparently a real Boy Scout fungi. Cheers Arry

Easy get caught out by these, I know GL posted pictures of one but thought I would post this. The wife rang just after she left for work saying theres some mushrooms growing in a old ladies garden that I do her shopping for. They look like some really nice mushrooms growing by her drive, growing in a bit of a strange spot for ordinary mushrooms. Thought nice feed here. I was a bit suspicious had a closer investigation. Just as well as I did "Yellow Stainer" poisonous and easily mistaken for "Field Mushroom" or "Horse Mushroom". Buy the way in a

Not sure what them red things are but look up"BirchKnight Cap" see if that fit the bill, its a do NOT eat if it is. May fit as you have found "Birch Polypore" which they recon is edible but its bitter, I tried soaking in salt water and a also milk but was sill bitter not so bitter but still not good. The "Birch Polypore" is very interesting though as I said in a earlier post its anti cancer, anti septic. You can even cut strip a piece of skin off which can be used as Elastoplast (Think the underside, but can't really remember), you can wrap it around a cut finger and it will stick to itself,

Steve its mainly woodland mushrooms that grow in the leaf litter like the "Hedgehog mushrooms" and "Chanterelles" that need a brush off. Cheers Arry

If I can't find something it because she's put it some where and she doesn't know where she put it. Once doing the light in the kitchen, went to reach for the screwdriver I was using, gone. I haven't seen it she says, had to get another from my tool box to Finnish the job. Later found it in the cutlery drawer, you must have put it there she said. I was up a fxcking step ladder FFS. Lol. Cheers Arry

Its for brushing off loose grit and dirt the mushrooms before you put them in you basket. Steve, save washing them as some get soggy if washed. It's like any hobby more you get into it the more gadgets and kit you want. Used to use an ordinary Opinel and take a little paint brush. Cheers Arry

My apple tree was loaded last year, this year it had one and that fell off when it was still little,Lol. I had a lot of Bullfinches in think they might have had the blossom buds. Was a very dry summer as well. Keep an eye out for other stuff in a 100 year old orchard should be some thing there. Had a few "Field mushrooms" a "Horse mushroom" and a hand full of "Chanterelles" today, so its not over yet. Alb. Cheers Arry

Mate I honestly don't know. I don't eat any of the little white ones with white gills as some are very deadly. If I had to guess it looks like one of the "fibre cap" types which I think are all poisonous, If it was me I would leave. Make sure you explain to any kids not to touch. Sorry I'm not much help. I just stick to the ones I know leave the rest and try and learn a new one or two each year.
