Anyone have an interest in this arena? Listened to Paul Stamets on Joe Rogan a while back and it's a fascinating subject, but so vast. Trying to identify them isn't easy either for a complete beginner so anyone with knowledge that can be shared please do so.
 


Has anyone ever seen a toad sat on one. What vagary of fate stopped then being a frogs tool. Or a frog seat. Or a hedgehog ladder
 
Wood Blewits are tremendous meaty mushroom but out of season at tge moment.... they start at then end of summer so more a Autumn early Winter mushroom... also known more in these parts as Blue Stalks
 
Pick them in the forests out in Poland if I'm there at the right time mainly boletus/penny bun find the right place at the right time and you can get carrier bags full
 
If you're not 100% sure don't do it.

There's some easy to identify ones that are safe to eat, things like the giant puffball, scarlet elf cups, cauliflower fungus, porcini, oyster mushrooms and chicken of the woods.
 
national trust do days when you can get a guided walk and shown how to identify common species

I did one at gibside and it was dead interesting
