Fall Fungi Frolic

So, I have decided to do a mushroom program at "Youth in the Outdoors" this year to help me take time to learn more about our local fungi. Since I know how to ID only a handful of species - think you can count them on 2 hands - I took a walk in the woods and tried to photograph and collect some of each of the fungi I found. I brought examples how where I could to try and figure them out.

It isn't easy but I think I am making some progress.

I have four mushroom books:

"Mushrooms Demystified"
"Mushrooms and Other Fungi of North America"
"Fascinating Fungi of the North Woods"
and my new favorite "Mushrooms of Northeast North America - Midwest to New England" - A key I can actually use!

It is slow going so if anyone out there can help it would be greatly appreciated.
