Young chanterelles and grapevine |
It's a mushroom blog! I am crazy for wild mushrooms, and all their friends and associates. I go hiking in central Missouri, looking for mushrooms, and find lots of other woodland citizens along the way. Heavy on macro-photography, with bite-sized fact morsels throughout.

Quick chanterelle beauty

Let the Games Begin! The Chanterelles are HERE!
The chanterelles are out!
I was on my way to checking The Field of Chanterelle Joy and found them just all over the woods, right on the little paths. Nobody home yet in The Field, though.
Curious I am to see what will happen in the field, which last September was covered with hundreds of them for a good few months. Also, it's hardly a "field"--it's covered with some plant I haven't ID'd yet, and lots of damn honeysuckle, and trees.
I cleaned and sauteed the whole lot of them, ate a LOT of them in scrambled eggs, and there's plenty left (until TOMORROW, anyway, when I'm going for another hike), and my house smells like chanterelles, which is great.
