Redcaps prolific
Lots of redcaps this year - and they very conveniently wait until the
blackcaps are finished to ripen. We've been picking them just before noon and having them fresh with our lunch. The remainder goes to relatives, friends and neighbors. |

Bob Don't really know the technical terms for them but that's what they are called around here. I've also heard some people refer to the red ones as wild rasberries but they don't taste like rasberry. |

Found in scattered locations that get sunshine, I was hoping it wasn't a reference to Amanita muscaria. |
