Another Photo of the Cortinaria | You may not be able to see the purplish-lavendar color. But, this mushroom has beautiful color. | 0 | 05/24/2005 |

Cut Cortinaria | Notice how the inside of the cortinaria stains a purplish color when cut. This mushroom might make a good dye. | 0 | 05/24/2005 |

Tucked into a Tree Trunk | I don't know what these are, but it looks like something walked by and took a few bites out of them! These mushrooms were nicely tucked into the old tree trunk. Photo was taken on 8/21/2004. | 0 | 05/26/2005 |

Unidentified | I don't know what these are, but just from the color alone, I wouldn't taste them! But, what beautiful color! Photo taken on 8/28/2004. | 0 | 05/26/2005 |

Oyster Mushroom | Here is a solitary oyster mushroom growing on a fallen Aspen tree. Photo was taken on 8/28/2004. The mushroom was probably in its prime a week before that. | 0 | 05/26/2005 |

Unidentified | I don't know what this "jelly like" mushroom is. Lynne took this photo with a great lighting effect on 8/28/2004. | 0 | 05/26/2005 |

Agaricus Amicosus | Amicosus means something like "friendly" in Latin. This is also sometimes called the agricus silvaticus. It grows in pine forests, like the one surrounding our cabin. In fact, this specimen was found within 50 feet of the cabin. It has pink gills when young and stains pink. This is a great edible, and we tend to have it with morning omelettes. The familiar "button mushrooms" you get at the grocery are from the agaricus family. | 0 | 05/27/2005 |
