Here's a redux post of fungi pictures for this #fungifriday by @ewkaw

I'm headed up to Wisconsin and Michigan to hunt for mushrooms in the upper peninsula.

There will be a few days of camping and hiking with hopefully many new fungi finds.

I will definitely be searching for this pink tipped coral again as it grew in the campground I stayed at last time.

In fact the whole campground was covered in strange coral fungi.

Most of this coral isn't edible but the pink tipped and crown tipped coral are.

I checked the weather and it is supposed to be a bit humid on a couple of the days I'm there, this means lots of well watered mushrooms should be out.

Plenty of amanitas should be out as well.

Hopefully there will be lobsters too.

Given the time of year I expect to find quite a few chanterelles out too.

If the mushrooms are hiding at least there is plenty of opportunities for hiking and swimming.

More fungi soon... Happy #fungifriday

I also like to draw and play an assortment of stringed instruments and drums! And psilocybin.

Awesome, just be careful not to permanently change your brain chemistry with psilocybin.

Lol I know a guy who grew his own and ate them everyday now he is living under the bridge trying to take bites out of rocks thinking they are apples.

Wow that is some strange behavior. I'll do a bunch at a time, but only a couple times a year, if that. Everyday seems like you'd never bring what you learned back to your life.

Best to let your brain have a chance to refocus a bit.

Truth! I never understood People who did em all the time. You loose the benefits and can do damage long term in my opinion.
Obviously I’m talking the special kind 🍄
