Too late mate, he be gone

I'll keep a look out for more.

I did not know they could glow

Cooler than I thought!

I'm starting to take a shine to mushies.

[myco]

galerina of some sort i would say

as for books theres plenty out there

just have a search on the net mate you'll find plenty of books and documents on fungi

if your after a book on the psychoactive kind i would recommend paul stamets psilocybin mushrooms of the world

paul stamets also has some other good books to

look him up

thanks for the info

mainly interested in tasty ones.....and unusual ones.....but not willing to get poisoned for a feed

all sorts of different kinds seem to be popping up around the place atm

maybe i'm just taking more notice lately.

the older I get the more diverse my interests are becoming, but as I said above...not game enough to try something unless I can positively identify it as edible.

you are correct...there are heaps of books out there...just trying to find a good one or two.

are all Galerinas poisonous?
