Thank you. I can’t take credit for the Yellow Fly Agaric photo. I found it on the internet while trying to identify my American Caesar/Amanita Jacksonii.
I’m only a beginner where mushrooms are concerned, of course. I concur with the advice given on the SouthernLiving site:
“The striking, red-capped mushrooms at the top recently popped up in my yard after lots of rain. I’d never seen them before, so I did some research on red-capped mushrooms found in Alabama and tentatively identified them as Amanita jacksonii. My research revealed that unlike other members of the Amanita genus, this one is edible. Am I going to eat it? Hell, no! Even mushroom experts, called mycologists, sometimes make mistakes – and with many toxic mushrooms, one mistake is all you get.”

LOL. The same goes for me, for the time being. Wild mushrooms are a wonderful resource for highly qualified people . . . or in desperate times. But I’m not feeling quite that desperate just yet . . .
Here are the other mushrooms I foraged today. Figuring out what they are will be a challenge.
