We spent some time this weekend at our place in NE Pennsylvania.
The weather was crisp and sunny - perfect for checking out the Spiranthes cernua patches and taking pictures of beautiful mushrooms, which due to the wet weather last month were popping up everywhere in the woods. Remembering my mother preparing very delicious wild Mushroom dishes as we were growing up in East Germany, I really am sorry I lack the education to identify these delicacies for certain, as one little mistake might cost one dearly.
Looking across the pond, Spiranthes cernua grows along the edge of the pond.
And now on into the woods looking at the many different Mushrooms-
And these were large enough for Frogs to use as Poker table lots of them too!
And - this is how "Escargot" came about?
And there are always lots of Asters this time of year.
lots of them too!
