A Walk Through the Woods, and a Little Surprise...

Well, in the past two days, I have collected many pictures. More on that later. First, I want to tell of my walk through the woods yesterday; I found lots of white variety Amanitas, lots of Ganoderma tsugae:

Then, I stumbled on this:


I knew right away from a distance what it was, but couldn't believe it! Now, this is on the border of a horse field (horse none the less).
I also wanted to get a picture of what happens in 1 minutes' time when a cubes' stem is cracked:

Instant blue. And by the time I got it home (less than 20 min. later) :

even more blue. But these pale in comparison to swim's mushrooms which look like the inkwell of a blue magic marker in seconds. With that in mind, I'd like to challenge the idea of bluing being an indicator of potency. I'd be willing to bet that this one would be very mild, and furthermore give a rather undesirable sensation, which is why I don't hunt cubes. What a surprise as I wasn't looking for these, but that's one of the benefits of living in the south, we're trippin over 'em (no pun intended)  I made alot of other cool finds, too, but don't have time right now. I'll post my others later.
enjoy
