Few hours foraging

I'm off fishing later so we popped out for a quick walk and picnic. We found parasol, beefsteak and field mushrooms aswell as spearmint, watercress, blackberries and a few other bits.

Quality. I've not tried for mushrooms yet, always been out off by the stories of experienced Bush men mis identifying and killing themselves etc. Fancy it like, must be a few ones that are easy to identify?

See a lot near me growing on tree trunks near base, are any of them edible? Find some beauties.

Several Polypores are easy, chanterelle, field mushroom, hedgehogs, ink caps, parasols, bolettes.... there's loads of different ones.

 

Without seeing them they could be anything mate.

Sample a sliver of any you aren't sure of and if you don't carc it or feel unwell build up in gradually increasing size slivers
