Well when it rains, it pours! Just found a huge cluster of them in my neighbor's yard. They seemed to be growing in association with a weeping cherry:

Check the ground around them, I find they often like the company of B. edulis.

They love moss apparently, I used to live near a patch that produced that much every week for 2 - 2 1/2 months every year.

-------------------- Mr. Mushrooms said: I will confess something that should be quite obvious, CC. I love mushrooms, i.e. fungi. I really do. I am talking about a strong feeling, i.e. emotion, for them. I think they are beautiful. I even dream of them.

Well we ended up pan frying them them and taking a pretty mild dose. It was a mellow experience with some odd changes in body perception. My head felt kind of disconnected and my eyes seemed to adjust to changing light more slowly than normal. We wound up having a few beers after it was apparent we weren't going to lose our heads, and the alcohol synergized extremely well with the mushrooms, producing a deeply relaxed and chilled out mood.
