Well this morning was quite a surprise. I went out to fill the bird feeder and as I stepped off the back porch there was a sprinkling of tiny mushrooms looking up at me. When I say “tiny” I mean that the largest caps were less than an inch across. Perhaps 20 of them, minus 1 so I could get photos of the gills.

I haven’t seen any mushrooms for 5 or 6 months. And these are not ones I’ve ever seen before. Honey Pinkgill Mushroom (Entoloma cetratum).

What fun! And in my own backyard. No hiking involved.
