Ep 21 Toe Tally Amazing Mushrooms! A Mid January Fungal Walk.

Wonderful video. Thanks There are still some golden chantrelles and lots of winter ones for a few more days . I believe we are going to get hit with some winter blast in the next few days .

The cold is coming, but yes, I loaded up my basket with winters yesterday. I find a few Goldens here and there still too

20:20 Pretty sure that's Chrysomphalina genus, probably C. aurantiaca. Yellow to orange , growing on conifer, white spored, with slightly decurrent gills. Chrysomphalina chrysophylla is another contender, but that tends to have a more brown top though, and actually can look quite a bit like winter chantarelle.

I was hoping you'd chime in on this one. I thought I searched every Omphalinoid mushroom...apparently not lol. Thanks so much. It looks exactly like the aurantiaca. Thank-you..I was going to start ripping out what little hair I have left on my head. haha You Rock!

Great video as always I’m only part way through it, but I wanna put this comment in here now before I watch the rest of it and then I’ll watch the rest of it. Where can I find more sources to learn about alphaperineric acid? Also, should I start carrying loonies and toonies with me so I can measure mushrooms? I think I have some somewhere ha ha

[@bigtoebushcraftwildforagin1970]

Hahaha! That's our imperial measurement here. We don't have pennies anymore, so that threw a real glitch in things lol. The APA is naturally occurring and so far only found in Clavulina cristata and certain seed oils...as far as I know. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9203645/
