Yes, many of those tops show brown spores that drifted down from the ones higher up. So that does suggest Crepidotus. But there are so many kinds that take microscopes to sort out. Some are distinctive,

Thanks for sharing your mushrooms and the name that people call them in your area! I know them as Schizophyllum commune or the Splitgill Mushroom. This one species grows all over the world. Here in North

In your 3rd image, you may want to check out the Trembling Crust, Merulius tremellosus.

I think they are Crepidotus, too, based on how the gills all radiate out from the central point where the mushroom attached to the wood. They will have brown spores, unlike the Oysters or Angel Wings.

I hope things go well with everyone's health there in your area. Everyone is reeling, I think.

big changes afoot, all over the place. here's to coming out the other side in better shape, for all the folks that have put so much effort and heart into this place over the past few years.

They are worth eating! And if you are willing to sacrifice one or two of the young flowerstalks, when they look like asparagus, you are in for a treat. Roasted Yucca flowerstalk is like a giant asparagus,

That looks like a wonderful place to be! I really like the stairs carved out of the clay cliffs. And the shells. Here's to Ukraine and it's beautiful places!

Peppers are some of the most beautiful garden harvests of all!

There are so many Agaricus species! Folks dwell on the spore color, but they all have the same spore color, lol. I find Agaricus xanthodermus so often it's maddening. They are so prolific and not edible.

That's some good eating, alright! I like soaking Exidia recisa in a hot lime sugar syrup, then drying them. They are good in soup, too. They are one of the first mushrooms, beyond morels, that I learned

Very nice mushroom hunting! I hope you find many more. Not every mushroom is edible, but they are all fascinating!

That looks delicious! Mushrooms make everything better, one way or another. It looks like your mushroom season is going great! :D

That's a lot of great mushrooms! Drying the mushrooms and using them as a powder is a great idea. Enjoy all that wonderful eating -- and more mushroom hunting soon! :D

Oh man, that 3rd photo looks like my hometown -- on a regular day, not sepia Saturday, lol. Sometimes the skies of western Kansas can be just that color! Happy Sepia Saturday!

I'm glad you got through your drought, @themagus, and the rains have returned. Drought is so draining for everyone. Enjoy all your greenery and the colorful flowers. Here's to plenty of gentle rains! :D

Don't forget the fungus -- they are doing what they do, too, and sure help clean up human messes! ; ) Enjoy all that nature around you. And I hope that ocean around you stays calm for the rest of the year.

Congratulations on your 20 years together, @generikat! Here's to many, many more, too! And enjoy your snow -- it's sure better than the dry autumns and wildfires of the past couple years.

There are lobsters out there, for sure! Here's some I got at the Oregon coast in August. I have found them even into November. They are one of my absolute favorite mushrooms to find. They can be so different

That looks really delicious! There is so much to eat from a single puffball! I am excited for you to enjoy all that puffball! I like puffball pizza crusts. I slice the raw puffball pretty thin for the
