A few alternative mushroom pics from the last month.
* Three Barometer Earthstars [Astraeus hygrometricus] forming a ladder up a mossy embankment.
* A small clump of bright orange Cinnabar Polypores [Pycnoporus cinnabarinus] that were either chomped or grew in with an odd shape.
* A moss covered branch with several glossy yellow Witches Butter [Tremella mesenterica] jelly mushrooms.
Yesterday, I helped co-lead my first mushroom walk hosted by the Discovery Center in Philadelphia. It was cold and rainy, but we still had a decent turn out of 20-ish people? I haven't worked much with my co- before, but I'm thankful that it went well, and the host organizer was very easy to work with too. We walked along a path that I had had a chance to scope out a month earlier, which was really helpful as someone not as confident about leading trails. The practice run with her made me realize I might know more than I expected- at least enough for the purposes of the event. It was hard to find specimens in the cold, but not impossible, including wood ears and oysters. I think people who attended had a good time and got to come away with some good fungi fun facts like how it's safe to touch mushrooms or how to use iNaturalist. I'm really thankful for this opportunity.

We’ve had a bit of rain lately and this particular stump seems very tasty.
Gyromitra esculenta.
A common fungus on southern Vancouver Island in early spring. Guidebooks list it as "toxic" and there have been fatalities recorded from consumption. The primary toxin, gyromitrin, is water soluble so boiling the mushrooms and discarding the water removes most of the toxin. But, gyromtrin hydrolyzes to monomethylhydrazine (aka rocket fuel) that is toxic when inhaled. So prepare them outside or in a room with good ventilation.

Now for another #gardening question: does anyone know what kind of #mushroom this is..?

The trillums are blooming, which is nice in and of itself, but is also an indictor that the spring fungi should be arriving soon. If I'm lucky, there'll be some morels and verpas where I found them last year around this time.
Also, I learned recently that there’s not two morphs of Trillium: white and purple. But rather that the flowers start out white and change to purple over their lifecycle.
