I caught my first taste of Bear’s Head!! Last week I found a tiny specimen and hoped I’d find more on this weekend’s forage with @wildcraftstudio I earned myself a slice of this beauty. Boy howdy do I feel like a true fungus huntress. I really didn’t think anyone would be able to get this down, at least in one piece. And I really didn’t think I’d catch it, and I thought even if I did catch it, it would burst into a million pieces. Props to these dudes Tyler and Nick for not dropping that branch on my head (you can hear me thanking them for saving my life 🙏🙏🙏 I would not recommended trying this at home, that branch could’ve ruined my day if it had landed on me). This specimen was spotted by a fellow forager not pictured. And filmed by.. dang it I didn’t get your name!! Who are you, mystery videographer?! Show yourself!! 🍄 Sometimes we face an opportunity that seems too good to be true. So good that we don’t even try to conquer it, because really... what are the chances? Well the chances were slim on this day. But these guys were determined. I think that little green orb in the video may have had something to do with it. Either way, I’m so glad we tried! ✨💚✨🍄 #bearshead #hericiumcoralloides #hericium #village #teamwork #womeninoutdoorwork #foraging #catch #goodcatch #popfly #homerun #magic #omg #perfect #allthemushroomhashtags #fungushuntress #mushroomsofinstagram #wildcraftstudioschool #nofilter #🤯 #🍄 (at Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4IPOEfACVL/?igshid=12zwjx02aiatd
