Chanterelles are fruiting like crazy right now. Spots are just blowing up with these golden delights.
I found my biggest chanterelles yet, and some areas had huge, beautiful fruits.
Other people are saying the same thing. Must have picked 10 pounds between 2 today, at least. Gave a basket full to a friend with visiting friends from Italy.
It seems that some spots are more prolific than other years, and the chanterelle habitat can be greater than expected, provided perfect conditions.

Two days ago my wife and I took a very short 10 minute walk through the woods in the east bay and stumbled onto a patch of chanterelles that gave us almost 7 pounds. I went back today with a friend and collected over 15 more pounds! Also about 5 pounds of oysters...
Cyanescens must be going off...gotta get more urban on the next foray.

how do you guys feel about those little tiny maggots that frequently eat shrooms?
i figure; once the mushroom is dry, the bug will be dead and it isn't detrimental to my health anyway.

lots (70+ mature caps) of cyanescens seen today, I only took photos of a few at a location distant from that of where they were growing due to high pedestrian traffic. growing on douglas fir chips!
saw a few friscosas too under some bushes next to a sprinkler.
and one of the biggest muscaria ive ever seen.

awesome find cyanophilus! that amanita is beautiful! I found a couple today as well, no where near that size though.
I do not have pictures up yet, but one of my patches looks like it's just starting to blow up. Brought home a few handfuls of cyanescens. getting excited!
