One good way to collect weird looks is to go barefoot. I highly recommend it. Bonus: if you're female, this instantly stops catcalls/people telling you to smile/various other bullshit because every obnoxious comment gets converted into "Hey, what happened to your shoes?"

I thought mirabilis because it was growing at the base of a stump. It looked a little more purple in person. I could easily be wrong though! I've found mirabilis before and it was much more purple.
xfsketch: Good idea. Get on that

Not me, I got them slave-feet. If it's above 50 degrees I usually don't have shoes. That also depends on the distance. Real hike, it would be stupid not to wear them.

lol...I can't tell you how many weird looks I get... shortly followed by, what in the world are you doing down there?! I love it...and wow! Those Amanita are freakin sweet!! So many of them!!
That is GREAT! The other day I was at a local park in town (behind a nearby non-emergency hospital) on my knees bent over trying to get some good close ups of several mushroom species. Some lady drives up and says in a rather loud and alarmed voice "Do you need some help?" I'm like "Nah I'm good just getting some pics". "Yeah" she says "but are you okay? Do you need some help?" LMAO tooooo funny... I had to reassure her like 3 times I was fine and no I didn't need any help.

In Chico, I got thrown out of an office park by a rent-a-cop while looking for Morchella rufobrunnea.
To this day I bet he's trying to figure out what obviously criminal activity I was obviously lying about looking for mushrooms in a flimsy effort to deny.

TODAY...
Saw this massive muscaria pushing up a nice clump of bark...

Moved some bark to see the length of the stem. The cap is the size of my fist and the stalk is already 4-5" tall. This thing is gonna be HUGE!

Armillaria & Hypholoma on same stump, inches apart.

Armillaria. Got a little lucky with the neat water-drop.

WHAT THE FUCK ARE THESE?! They were growing in a park, on the mulchy/leafy ground. They were about 5" long. They looked so cool!

Aw, man, you should have told her "Yeh, I COULD really use some help. Stand right here and hold this reflector (umbrella, whatever). Gee, thanks! LOL
Asking nosy parkers to actually help you is the best way to lose them quick.

Saw this little dude all by himself...

This bolete was WAY past it's prime. Looks more like a sea anemone.

Anyone hunting woodchips has seen plenty of these. They look cool when matured. They get transparent.
