Shaggy manes... but a bit too mature for a couple of them. g


Too mature? They just popped up yesterday. Must be pretty short lived.

Yep. If it fruits in relatively warm, damp weather, a shaggy mane can go
from a firm and perfect button to a gooey, inky sludge in less than three
days.

I wouldn't eat a wild mushroom on a bet.

Sad, that. You're missing out, *big* time.

There are many common and delicious edible species that are practically
unmistakable and have no "nasty" look-alikes, and I've been picking and
eating them for decades.
