Today I’ve been moss hunting. It’s been consistently below zero all week and while the central heating boiler in our house has been broken all that time 🥶, nature hasn’t given up up outside. Even these little mushrooms have braved the frosts and are enjoying blue skies and sunshine. . . . #theuniversegives #gratefulflow #wintermushrooms #babyitscoldoutside #mothernatureworkinghard #natureisbrilliant #lincolnshire #alwayssomethingtolookat #fungifreaks #mushroomhunter #belowzero #mosshunting (at Harrowby, Lincolnshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnzNV4vIAAa/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Morel Mushroom.

Chilly shroomies ❄ ↟↟

Our Christmas eve hike turned out to be more fruitful than I expected. 🥶 Mushrooms never cease to amaze me. “Winter chanterelle” and “yellowfoot chanterelle” are both very appropriate common names for these Craterellus tubaeformis. We found enough of these to make a pot of soup. We also found some golden chanterelles and a bunch of good bellybutton hedgehogs. Who said mushroom season was over? 😆 ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #yellowfoot #yellowfootchanterelles #winterchanterelles #wintermushrooms #craterellustubaeformis #craterellus #winterforaging #oldgrowthwinter #mushroomsociety #mushroomsofinstagram #wildmushrooms #mushroomhunting #mushroomsofthepnw #pnwmushrooms #pnw #pnwonderland #pnwlife #nofilter #nature #forestfloor #mushroomspotting #mycology #research (at Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6iswZQAzEH/?igshid=19w4q6v4mz6fk
