I have found a patch several , actually of what I believe to be
chanterelle mushrooms . Does anyone here have the knowledge to help me ID these ? I will post photos of both the 'shrooms where they're growing and the one I picked to ID them . We love mushrooms ... I sure hope these are edible ! -- Snag |

I pick and eat field mushrooms but even then I'm wary given that there have been a number of deaths in near proximity to where I live form mushroom poisoning. Do you have any higher education institutes near you where there might be a mycologist on staff? |

I won't offer any opinion on the mushroom identity but, I'd recommend a cautious check on some of the other vegetation growing around them. In the photo showing the tip of your shoe, compare the plant above and to the left of the mushrooms, at about 11 o'clock, as well as the one to the right of your toe to this: http://tinyurl.com/3ylv9h Ross.

Southern Ontario, Canada Yup , looks a lot like poison ivy . But it isn't , it'll be a tree when if , it's in the power line easement it grows up . I'm especially careful to avoid PI , not because it bothers me but because my wife reacts badly to it .. If I think I've been in it , I put my clothess directly in the washer and my body into the shower . Thanks for the thought ! -- Snag |

There's a great mycological (mycology=study of fungi) society there. I have a friend or two in that group (I've been picking and eating wild fungi for more than 40 years). Do a Google search for NAMA (North American Mycological Society). They will list affiliated groups, find one near you and join in. Steve |

We had a bumper crop here out in the paddocks just a couple of months ago - large cane shopping baskets full of them and they were delicious. |

And now that I've done a google hunt on it I find that it is a member of the rhus family - I wonder if we have any native to this country - next google job...... |

Supposedly the cashew plant is related to poison ivy. |

I've been on forays that didn't get more than a couple hundred yards or so. Be super careful if you intend to eat wild fungi. There are thousands of species out there and while only a few are deadly, there are many that might make one think (or wish) he is dying. |

Here's the link to my photobucket mushrooms album http://s991.photobucket.com/user/Sna...?sort=3&page=1 First two photos look like slightly-aged Smooth Chanterelles. What you need here is a hands-on knowledgable and *experienced* shroomer to show you the diff between the edibles and any lookalikes. So join a club, if there's one anywhere around! (I can not speak for ones in the other photos, and while I don't necessarily think they are harmful I don't claim they are the same species, either.) |

The other 'shrooms in my photos are identical , I picked this one in the same spot . Unfortunately the only guy I've found that is close enough to help me grows his own , said he found so few edibles here that he quit hunting . With no one near to help me learn and identify I've decided to limit my 'shroom hunting to the grocery store shelves ... Plus right now I've got a case of hives , dunno where it came from . Might be a reaction to handling that mushroom , might be from a couple of bee stings earlier this week , might be something I ate .scratch scratch -- Snag |
