Today had been quite a busy day, that's why the hiking post is being posted late. But I guess it's better late than never. Since I have to go do more chores very soon, I'll keep this one short. When I posted the Norvan Falls hiking post (#864855), I mentioned that my wife saw a lot of mushrooms and that I will share pictures of these fungi / mushrooms in a later post. Well, I thought this would be a good time to post about these mushrooms, so this is that later post. I'm not familiar with mushrooms, so I have no idea what their names are or if they're edible or poisonous. But they sure look very interesting. Check it out.

I just Googled it, that Norvan Falls is in Canada. Intresting thing that certain mushroom species are very similar / the same as here in Europe. For example the 3rd picture is delicious porcini mushrooms (idk if translation is good) (https://www.google.com/search?q=izletes+varganya&sca_esv=9cb432d0935eb54f&udm=2&biw=1536&bih=702&sxsrf=AHTn8zodgSR1RCbjuISO-NEyUvviVGFxSQ%3A1741601912490&ei=eLzOZ-PMHZ2N9u8P2tWh0A0&ved=0ahUKEwjj6NXapP-LAxWdhv0HHdpqCNoQ4dUDCBE&uact=5&oq=izletes+varganya&gs_lp=EgNpbWciEGl6bGV0ZXMgdmFyZ2FueWEyBBAAGB5ImBxQ-wZYiBtwA3gAkAEAmAG2AaAB5w6qAQQ0LjEyuAEDyAEA-AEBmAIToALuD8ICBhAAGAcYHsICBxAAGIAEGArCAgUQABiABMICBhAAGAgYHpgDAIgGAZIHBDMuMTagB6Es&sclient=img) is one of the most delicious types of mushrooms. It can be eaten fried, dried, pickled, or as a spice, making it a great addition to certain dishes.
But my favourite mushrooms specie is "Emperor's pea" (Amanita caesarea)
