Her enthusiasm makes me so happy. I would love to know a mushrooming friend like this.

[@YellowElanor]

Thank you :)

[@erickaaustring2052]

Thank goodness your welcome

[@frithar]

Your joy is everything! All the happy accidents you have when you're out, finding things you don't expect, remind me of Bob Ross. LOL

[@MakeLikeAFridge]

Hope to see many more of these videos! Really clear on finding which ones to eat, and how to identify them. I haven't been mushroom hunting, but I think this year will be my first. Thanks!

[@mukmewx]

Thank you so much for doing this! I'm looking into getting into mushroom hunting and this really helps me stay informed and safe.

[@jasonemery1213]

Thank you for your perspective, you're attitude has inspired me

[@PS-mv7it]

I learned several things from your video! Thank you for teaching! Love your basket!

[@myMusicHobby302]

You're amazing! So much knowledge! Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[@jungsomewhat]

Everything about this video is really wonderful thanks for the joy ..peace and happy times..

[@YellowElanor]

Thank you for the wonderful compliment

[@headrushmag]

i just binge watched 5 of your episodes, finally a really nice informative you tube channel ! Thank you for sharing all your knowledge ^ . ^

[@pineandprairielife]

I love your videos! I have shared your channel with all my friends. Great explanations!!

[@jojodiver8706]

Absolutely enchanting!

[@TheFarmacySeedsNetwork]

I love your mushroom videos... Thanks for the great info!

[@LivingArtsCo]

Great video, thank you. Also whom ever is married to this woman is a very, very lucky guy.

[@keirhi]

That’s kinda creepy

[@LivingArtsCo]

@@keirhi WHY? A woman knowledgeable of nature is pretty rare nowadays.

[@lungotevere]

Great and very informative video! Thank you for sharing.

[@ricardovolkmann779]

I really enjoyed watching you forage for mushrooms, I want to learn how to safely go out in the woods and find food. I'm very curious on what the engraving on your knife says...just because your close up macro views where very interesting.

[@birdcanoe3084]

Your videos are awesome! So well done and informative, I really hope you continue to make them!

[@YellowElanor]

Thank You! I hope to continue them as well.

[@ashleymarie3410]

I'm a new subscriber and I just have to say I love your videos!! I'm very close to nature coming from the woods of Pennsylvania but I haven't had hands on or very descriptive books to identity the mushrooms around me. your videos are inspiring and very descriptive. I'm super bummed that I didn't find your channel a few months sooner. I actually take alot of photos of mushrooms myself on the count of nature's always changing with the weather and they seem to be very much inpacked by such. keep it up

[@Chadis420]

going chanterelle hunting for this first time this week! Thanks for the helpful video!!

[@ginalanning5303]

Chanties are one of my favorites!

[@BuddyBurlison]

lol your just like how i am about explaining things. Can tell you truly have a passion for the out doors. :)

[@SalemCBR1]

Very well done video. Delicious information.

[@UNIROCKtv]

dude, this channel is so good. i feel happy after watching it. i need to do that with my videos more

[@PumaGhostwalker]

I was backpacking the Appalachian Trail and found many Chanterelles. I love to smell the mushrooms too, Oysters smell heavenly. You make great videos, I love the editing, I just shoot and post.

[@tammytime360]

Love mushrooms too

[@timray485]

Great videos! Lots of good info! Keep it up and thanks.

[@MysticFiddler1]

Love your hunting and the videography. It's like I'm out there with a couple friends (much more knowledgeable than I) showing me the ropes. I like that as you encounter other species, you comment on them as well. Thanks for the breath of fresh air.

[@YellowElanor]

Thank you! I appreciate your comment...I like doing it that style and I'm glad you enjoyed it.

[@dddrtko]

I'm a big fan of your videos, I find them very informative and interesting. Very cool stuff, keep up the great work - and keep educating us on the wonderful world of Fungi. Thanks for the awesome videos!

[@YellowElanor]

Thank you for the encouragement!

[@brakaner2703]

Very informative, thanks s lot!

[@karinanalbandyan3009]

Thank you for this info. You are lucky to live in a place where so many edible mushrooms are found. There aren't any edible mushrooms in Jacksonville Fl. I used to go mushroom hunting when I was a little girl in Russia. I loved it. I've never done it in America, but I want to

[@xseedlingx]

Wonderful video!! Love the loads of info. Those are some beauty chants you found :) I've yet to fin any true chants only scaly ones, hopefully this year i'll keep my eyes peeled. Thanks for the vid!

[@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures]

Great... your videos are awesome! Got to love mushroom picking.

[@downtherabbithole3977]

You have made an awesome show. Hope you continue on one day!

[@kevinvieths3604]

Thank you. These have been by far some of the best wild mushroom videos I have been able to find on youtube. I am down in Portland and looking to get into foraging so I am always trying to find places to learn more about what the PNW has to offer. I see you haven't posted any in awhile and I hope you do again soon. Thanks again and keep up the good work.

[@boonedog3518]

A great video. Thank you for sharing. That's a big knife you have! Lol. No bear in the woods will want to mess with you!

[@gailsaer459]

Thank you, I really enjoyed this

[@robertmorgan3675]

She is so awsome, and so knowledgeable, so fun to watch

[@NewMessage]

Wish you were still doing these.. great little series.

[@Patrick_Knowlton]

I just wanted to say I just discovered your channel and I love your videos!!

[@RTFosmark]

Please make more videos! Caught your Beginner ID lecture at the Fall Show last month and was excited to find your vids when I was researching Hericium! Seriously, these are the best foraging videos I've seen.

[@YellowElanor]

Oh that's awesome you came to the Fall Show! Happy you like the videos, I'd love to start making more soon, thank you for the compliments, appreciate it :)

[@MakeLikeAFridge]

This is literally the video that made me interested in mushrooms and foraging altogether. Thank you!

[@TheLordbal]

we have chanterelles growing all over the property under our pecan trees, love em ;)

[@mikewellband9306]

excellent video Elanor!

[@FISHHAZARD]

Awesome!

[@airakusuma1910]

I really love your videos! They reminds me of the wonder of treasure hunt when I was a kid. Please keep making these beautiful videos :D

[@stjoshua1976]

[@YellowElanor]

Thanks! I'd love to make more, but the timing hasn't quite come together yet-always looking to make it happen though :)

[@pardyhardly]

Great hunt !

[@ronnieteo58]

thank you the videos. appreciate ☺👍

[@aliceswonderland7503]

Hello. Just wanted to pass by and say your channel and website are the best things I have seen online in a while. Your website is super informative, really well written, in a way it turns words into really tangible ideas easy to assimilate. Your channel could grow easily if you kept doing more videos. Genuine and informative stuff like this is gold.

[@YellowElanor]

Thank you for such an encouraging comment, I appreciate it. I do plan on creating more videos and adding to my website in the future, I had to set it aside for a time but hope to return soon.

[@danlong179]

I am crazy about mushrooms! I can climb about in the woods for hours even after my friends are dead tired. If there are mushrooms, my basket is usually overflowing! :)

[@WillBrownart]

I like you 😁👍 good job . Great adventure!

[@erickaaustring2052]

Loved learning mushrooms in the field earth peace earth

[@musicisblood2636]

Great video, loved it!

[@viktorskalbe7288]

[@MJ-lu8jr]

i love how interested you are in foraging for mushrooms :-) keep it up

[@YellowElanor]

+Millet Jangir Thank you, I shall :)

[@GunnerGibbons]

Elanor, your awsome great vid! Thanks Chris

[@YellowElanor]

Thanks! :)

[@robbiek444]

they are in season here in central FL they come with the rains, i personally have gathered about 25 lbs of them already, their are so many i feel like a hog, but they are so good and plentiful, i only take what i will eat, i'm waiting on the black trumpets to come up, no sign yet, gathered some reishi mushrooms too, i will make tea with them, i love watching your videos, nothing more attractive to me than a beautiful educated women out in the woods picking mushrooms, your a breath of fresh air, in a declining world, i said you are a rare breed, but really, WE are a rare breed of people, if only others could find happiness in such a simple thing, like picking mushrooms! much love to you my woodsy sister.. :)

[@thesecretthirdthing]

would love to see videos like this come back, really fun with gorgeous shots.

[@YellowElanor]

Thank you, I so appreciate hearing that. I'd love to do more videos, there's so much to show and share out there :)

[@brianher67]

At first of I would like to say that your beautiful and I love how you tell the mushrooms apart from each other. Your knowledge the camera use and the music fit very good together and make it look professional. Keep making those videos they really help people out and in this case makes people sure not to get sick or die haha.

[@sophyGI]

How beautiful... one of the best videos... thank you for sharing your knowledge... Now I just need to find some. I live in high dry Wyo so not sure if there will be any around. Loads of boletes in my yard this year... loads of rain, such a blessing.

[@YellowElanor]

Thank you, I hope you find some...In Wyoming you could have Hericium coralloides, a similar species!

[@Erdinger2003]

Got medicated prior to watching/during. That camara is a good camera, those mushrooms look delicious and pure!

[@goodmushroom]

Great info! Found some giant chanterelles in LA in 2019. Hoping for another good haul this year!

[@craigkirby9202]

I fell asleep to whatever I was watching and woke up to this simple, honest, excellent video. Quality production, perfect presentation, educational, and you're a joy to watch. Subscribed and thumbs up. Thanks! 120ThingsIn20Years/BulwinkleII/Craig

[@YellowElanor]

Haha, well that's the coolest way someone has found my videos for sure. I'm glad you fell asleep and woke up to this.

[@funghiporcini9672]

19:33 beautiful pair of chanterelles

[@keepmoving1185]

I feel like I just went on a nice hike, gtreat presentation! I learned a lot!

[@YellowElanor]

Thank you!

[@madhen3084]

LOVE your videos!!!. Missing new ones.... Please keep educating us. My granddaughter (age 6 is all about the rhrooms. She adores your stuff.

[@YellowElanor]

Thank You! It'll probably be some time before I post new videos, but I'm always posting new photos on Instagram-I know, not near as exciting, but its what I can keep up with right now having just had a new baby recently :)

[@adoknightofficial832]

Possibly the most informative mushroom hunting video I have seen thus far

[@user-hk8rz3dp9x]

This is awesome information, got yourself a new subscriber.

[@YellowElanor]

Thanks so much!

[@JeremyMcTaggart]

Chanterelles my favorite! Used to grow in my yard by my big oak!

[@YellowElanor]

Awesome! They were my first mushroom I learned to ID :)

[@JeremyMcTaggart]

My 2nd after the morel..then when I saw these in my yard and did the research I was ecstatic! All those years growing up and never knew what I had in my yard!

[@edwardskrod]

Great vid

[@WorldwideOpenEyes]

Very good. Mushrooms that grow naturally. Useful, non-toxic, fun.🍄🍄

[@dougalexander7204]

Late to the party but thank you. You’re ‘mycologyntellectualness’ is inspiring.

[@YellowElanor]

Haha, thank you, I like that word.

[@zimmerfrey6505]

Wish you were my hunting buddy . Your awesome ! I love mushrooms, I'm a fun guy :)

[@YellowElanor]

Thanks!

[@RyanScottForReal]

This is fun... Give us most science :)

[@foodandtravel4404]

Nice video, liked

[@Kolekcjonergrzyby]

Nice video 👍

[@rhyswilliams9618]

Yes! Anothe mushroom video! :D

[@YellowElanor]

+Rhys Williams Finally :)

[@jimcowan2087]

I have enjoyed your videos. A little off topic, but would like to know about the knife you are using. Nice... and thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[@kylemoppert3105]

Here on the Gulf Coast our Chanterelles are much smaller... and "thinner"... Great Video!

[@deminybs]

Ha 10:30 it's a smiley face! And funny the jack o lantern top looks like a dryads saddle feathery pattern just orange Awesome vid, bout to go out looking myself

[@barryhugo]

Great series of videos. When are you making more?

[@YellowElanor]

Yes! We took a break, but just yesterday went out filming to get the series going again!

[@willymags123]

where did you go? I just came across your channel and love it but I noticed you haven't made a video in a year. I pray your OK

[@ASMRGRATITUDE]

Her kids are taking up all her time.

[@videodima]

Wonderful video, I'm trying to get started with mushroom hunting, and it's kinda hard to find a cohesive guide/video. But this was fantastic, great vibes!

[@YellowElanor]

Thank you! :)

[@flmkpr]

im loving your vids the one thing you finaly said in this vid is where you are alot of people never do that but love the way you give hints of identifying im in the mid east appalachi

[@flmkpr]

one thing i would ask you is if you ever come out this way is visit me ;)

[@YellowElanor]

You know, I remember when learning to ID mushrooms and watching videos I became frustrated in not knowing where the person was located! So I'm glad me saying that helped you out. And, the hope is to take this to the Mid East someday :)

[@Jackerlernychannel]

I get fascinated by mushrooms 🍄

[@YellowElanor]

Me too :)

[@michaelwalling8281]

I love the pace of your banter, I can digest more of the information. Also it looks like your from Washington or Oregon which is pertinent to me. Can you recommend a field guide?

[@YellowElanor]

Thank you. I am from Washington and do lots of my foraging from WA and OR. I love 'Mushrooms of the Pacific Northwest' (Trudell) and 'Mushrooms of the Redwood Coast' (Siegel). Both are fantastic, and even though we aren't in the Redwood coast, the book applies quite well to our area.

[@Joedy860]

I have only watched 3 of your videos so far but I love them, off the wall question but what kind of knife are you using, it's very nice.

[@wadedewalt1650]

Damn, shes is beautiful

[@TheCharliebeardog]

I've been trying to find videos about wild mushrooms since I am a beginner and your videos are the best I have found so far. Thank you. Keep up the good work! And your camera person does a great job as well!

[@YellowElanor]

+TheCharliebeardog Thank you! I'm intending on posting many more videos, once the mushrooms return for me! I'll pass along the compliments to my camera man-my brother :) He does an amazing job!

[@whatsthedealoneill1]

thank you for this great video. I was wondering if it matters if you put the Chanterelle mushrooms in the basket with those other mushrooms you take spore prints of? You are so fun to watch and you add to my newly discovered obsession with mushrooms.

[@TybaltC]

+whatsthedealoneill1 Great question. I want to know this too.

[@YellowElanor]

+LEU Hello, this was my reply to the above question :) "With the mushrooms I had in my basket, it was fine for them to be in there together. Poisonous mushrooms are okay to touch and smell--it's ingesting them that causes a reaction. If I am unsure of the toxicity of a mushroom (or know for sure it is deadly poisonous) and want to keep it for spore prints, I will usually put it in a wax bag first and then into the basket to assure they stay separate."

[@royjonker110]

hooray been waiting for this for some time... cheers mate

[@YellowElanor]

+Roy Jonker I've been waiting for some time too :) Thanks for watching!

[@CliverMcguiver]

holly kamolly --- rock and rolly ---- you are all over the mushroom net... I have been sharing you...you make shroom fun...

[@YellowElanor]

Ha! Rock and rolly I love your commet...thank you.

[@otieyctie5579]

[@YellowElanor]

+Siti Rahmah Ismail Thank you! I hope to do more soon :)

[@danjf1]

since this video was filmed how are wild mushroom numbers in the Pacific NW, late 2021? Here in the northeast last 20 years in my area I've seen mushroom numbers absolutely plummet

[@ryanhunter1587]

You have a good eye for the fungus among us.

[@YellowElanor]

Thank you! Sometimes too good of an eye and I slow my friends down when they want to hike :)

[@Cdubp01]

I know you probably won’t read this, but I absolutely loved the video. I found my first chanterelle today, along with being completely overtaken with ticks. Lol. Anywho, I’m really curious as to what your knife is? Looked like it had some really cool engraving! Take care!

[@JohnDoe-tx8eu]

i havent watch all your videos yet but i keep seeing that knife and can't help but wondering what it says. any insight on that nice looking piece of metal?

[@dogalmantartoplayc3345]

nice exellent
