Day out Fungi Hunting

Mrs InfoZhed gifted me a book:
Collins gem all you need to know Mushrooms
That inspired me to go out in the woods and see what I could find. Had an idea to try and identify some of my new woodland fungus friends.
This is something that I have not tried before and the trip was surprisingly interesting. I learnt that there are so many varieties it is really difficult for the untrained eye to identify them. Having no idea what the little critters are called really hit home how little I understand about the surrounding environment.
Also used an app on my phone to see which method was best to use app or book?. I discovered that the best method was to take photos then try and identify later. much more enjoyable than standing around scratching my head trying to work out what was what. Its harder that you think so why not give it a try. I would highly recommend this as an interesting day out with family and friends.
Really enjoyed trying to get the best photos possible from a mobile phone and small light I use for filming. My first results were awful but gradually got in the swing of it. Would definitely go out and try this again. Just as a bit of fun and good reason to spend some time surrounded by nature.

Your idea of photographing and identifying later is the way forward. You get to enjoy the walk again from the comfort of your favourite arm chair. 🍄

Absolutely, it was one of those things I thought of with no practical idea how it would work until I tried it. I was also very ignorant to how many spices of fungi there are out there and how difficult it is to actually find out exactly which is which. Next time I try it will take more care over photos. Great way to find out more about the world around us 👍
