Man, I don't know why it is, but I have the oyster eye! I find them everywhere. I think it is conditioning related. Most folks look for their food on the ground, I keep an eye on the trees. I usually scan the trees in the area before looking to the ground. That being said-
I find most of mine on Oak, either stumps, fallen, or dead patches on a living tree. About 95% of my oyster finds have been within 100 feet from a stream, Creek, or River. About 50% are on a tree hanging over the stream, or on a stump that is on the bank of the body of water. I'm sure geographic location will effect how they grow in your area.
Rule #1: find water 2#: find fallen Oaks or other hard wood. 3#: once you've found a spot that produces, come back to it about once a week, or a few days after a rain

Pleurotus Ostreatus hyper-accumulates mercury...careful about your source...Refer to my sig for the Stamets's preliminary chart on concentration lvl's in tests..even edibles can be toxic in the long term depending on environment..Look at the radioactive mushrooms around Chernobyl..I'm not talking about the melanin producers all over the news lately but the edible mushrooms in the local forests...they are positively glowing...

That's awesome! I love that orange color. This might be a dumbass question, but is that a gymnopilus or just some random orange mushroom? Haha.
