Fat zapper. Skinny zaps.

Easy embed format? Like when articles cite a tweet in html text?

Probably already exists…

Could link to top OS client download?

I like that book, especially for its funny anecdotes and even poetry, but IMO it’s not the best as far as getting beginners out confidently IDing mushrooms to consume.

When I first started looking I read a book Mushrooming Without Fear. It has maybe only a dozen mushrooms, all with pores or ridges - no gills. It’s extremely basic, but it introduced me to common mushrooms One by One.

It includes this advice in the photo, which I now definitely ignore, but it was great for starting out.

For me in SE US, right now I might still be able to find Hen of the Woods and Black Trumpets, which are great for starting out..

Then I might try

Winter: wood ears and turkey tails

Spring: morels and pheasant back

Summer: chanterelles, boletes, chicken of the woods

Adam Haritan of Learn Your Land has excellent video content on YouTube.

Best wishes.

TLDR: One by One.

Looks like you’ve got the pheasant back then

The fully mature growing on the exposed wood looks like “dryads saddle” or “pheasant back” to me. Grows on wood although sometimes unexposed wood… people say has a cucumber or watermelon smell. Gills or pores?

“Notes of celery and pineapple”

I don’t think I do… people invent things without preventing others from doing that thing all the time.

We disagree and it’s okay!

You’re a spicy one.
