My First Oyster Find - 4th July UK
    #12852338 - 07/05/10 03:32 PM (13 years, 7 months ago)

Yesterday I found my first ever oyster mushrooms which I had for breakfast this morning! Unfortunately I did not have my camera with me so I was not able to take any pics of them in their natural habitat.... I found them on a fallen birch log in the woods.

I was actually going to check my chanterelle spot from last year to see if any had come through yet (some have, waiting for them to get bigger and I will post for those later!). After checking my patch I was walking back to the car when I trod in a deep smelly mud bog. I scrambled out covered up to the knees in dirt, looked to see how muddy my shoes/trousers were and lo and behold there was a nice little patch of oysters right in front of me! I don't think I would have found them had I not fallen in the bog!

nice one man! gonna be some good eating! gotta try falling in the mud more often.
funny you found them on a birch though. around here birch are instantly colonized by birch polypores and turkey tails. i have never seen ANYTHING  else grow on birch around here.

yeah i was surprised to see them on a birch log... i hear they usually prefer beech or willow, but i guess thats the same with alot of mushies, you find them where you wouldn't expect!
