Chants, lobster, and chicken of the woods, and possible oyster
    #19004353 - 10/20/13 03:11 PM (10 years, 3 months ago)

Ok so we went Chanterelle hunting today, a very trusted friend told us where to go, I am pretty sure on all our finds but I'd like to double check them with second opinions, please

Fisrt we found chants, lots of them, here are some pics to make sure they are in fact chants.  They were found in the PNW on ground near ferns and trees mainly fur, alder and pine.

Second was lobster mushrooms, were found near chants in ground most just sort of poking up from the dirt.

Third was a surprise but we are pretty positive we found chicken of the woods.

And fourth we found but didnt harvest what we think were oyster mushrooms.  They were also in same area as others on the trunk of a fallen tree, not sure what kind it was pretty decayed.

Ok so I'd appreciate your opinions on what we found are they correct or not thanks. If you need more info on any or better pics let me know, well except the possible oyster as it is still in the woods:wink:

I could be mistaken but I'll say it: there's no chance that that tree your oysters are growing from is a broadleaved tree.

Pleurocybella, anyone?

You're on the west coast?

Your chant is indeed a chant. Looks like C. formosus.

Your lobster looks wonderful. I never find them in so good a condiction, which point has been causing me frustration for years.

Your chickens are indeed chickens, but they're a bit weathered/dried for eating maybe. It's been speculated that you are more likely to sugger GI upset or otherwise have sensitivity to them when growing from eucalyptus or conifers. I don't know if there's anything to that, but as I'm sensitive to them anyway, I always cook them very well, and don't mind trying them in smaller amounts the first time I collect them form a new wood. I only collect the outer, softest margin of the lobes (after much struggle with cooking them, and more than a little gas and bloating). I find that part to be the tastiest, with surely the best texture, and it seems to cause me a lot less digestive complication.

Attn PWN hunters: If you should come across a bluing Psilocybe matching P. pellicolusa please smell it.
If you detect a scent reminiscent of Anethole (anise) please preserve a specimen or two for study and please PM me.

Yes, those are very clearly Pleurocybella porrigens. The tongue shape and bright white.

The chicken of the woods is way old to eat.

Congrats on the chants and lobsters (and angels' wings if you want them)!
