It's mushroom season, time to go trudging through the undergrowth to find treasures and take in the magical earthy scent.
These ones are penny buns AKA porcini.

Penny buns with clover and evergreen foliage in the undergrowth. Whatever of the many names this mushroom has, it's one of the tastiest foraging finds!

Mycena Mushroom Releasing Spores

I had long wanted to make the distribution of spores visible. Today, I succeeded. I used my headlamp as a backlight and took the photo with a Nikon Z8 and a 105 mm macro lens at F8.0.

Close-up photo of a delicate pale mushroom with a thin stem and pleated gills, likely from the genus Mycena. Spores are visibly drifting away in a mist-like cloud illuminated against a dark, bluish background, creating a starry-night effect.

Mushrooms are a popular subject and these are by far the most popular of all of them, the distinctive fly agaric! Probably the most recognisable mushroom there is and it's fairy tale associations help to make it the most popular.

A Milkcap in the Galtees

We took ourselves to Kings Yard near the Galtees today, and walked up a nearby trail next to a river. It was lovely there, so quiet except for the sound of the rushing water! There weren’t many mushrooms around yet but we spotted a bunch of them near the end of our walk and I was delighted to get a few photos of them!

Did you know, false saffron milkcaps are mycorrhizal fungi, meaning they form symbiotic relationships with tree roots, particularly spruces and firs? The mushroom helps trees absorb nutrients from the soil while receiving sugars in return. This partnership is so specific that finding these mushrooms often indicates the presence of healthy coniferous woodland ecosystems, making them useful indicators of forest health.

I'm not going to have much time this year for a mushroom hunt, sadly. But I'd love to hear about yours and see your photos.
I do have this little drawing available...
