Mushrooms and fungi in October

This is a selection of fungi that I have found along the river bank while out with the dogs.



This is yellow through all of the Fungi I have no Idea what sort it is/

There were 4 of these large brown ones down the Ponds these were found in around 6 silver birch trees they are called LECCINUM SCABRUM (brown Birch Bolete ) I think and as the books say it is edible but the colour would put me off.
Some were badly eat on by Slugs but this one is not to bad.







This photo below is a good example of Fungi.


I gave a talk at the local WI the other night GUERRILLA HARVESTING or Hedgerow foraging
It went down well and I have had enquires about next year.
The homemade wine went down well and the chili dipping sauce.
I have been dehydrating Pears to day with all 9 trays full.
and picking the last of the crops off the trees on the plot over the road.
