Because of the rain: Mushrooms!

Posted on December 13, 2012 by SF Forest Alliance

Nature photographer Janet Kessler’s turning her camera to Nature’s pop-up stores – mushrooms. They’re in San Francisco woods and Natural Areas. (We don’t recommend eating them unless you know your fungi a whole lot better than we do. ‘Shrooming with a camera is a safe option.) These were taken during the second week of December after and during some heavy rains in the area.

Names and descriptions — identified from the photos only — can be found on Urbanwildness.Com. We were told to add this LOUD caveat: Mushroom I’D from photos only is ill advised. Pun intended. Ya know they say EVERY mushroom is edible . . . at least once! Enjoy!
