Here are a few that I found today.  I didn't think to take pictures of the chanterelles, but they were good eatin' after I fried 'em up.

#1


#2


#3


#4


Can you tell which one isn't edible.

The only one I would feel comfortable even considering eating is #2.

Yeah, that's the only one I was 100% on.  I fried them up with the chanterelles. Those are the first oysters I'd found around here.

The last one looks like what we call turkey tail, which I wouldn't eat. And I'm not a mushroomer, so not likely to pick and eat any.  :D

The grey jays hide mushrooms in the fir trees, so they must be ones they plan on eating in winter. But a bird can also eat berries that will poison people, so that's no good. :D

I think #1 is one of the amanitas and poisonous. #3, poisonous also and the turkey tail is used by some to make a medicinal tea that I don't remember what for. But don't take my word for any of this.

I believe #1 is an edible bolete.  #2 is a good to oyster.  #3 I'm not sure what it is, but I'm pretty sure it's poisonous.   Right on with #4 turkey tail is not poisonous and used in medicine and in making vodka😀.

I agree No. 1 is a bolete.  They're pretty much all supposed to be edible but I've tried the ones around here and they're not worth eating.

I guess there's a big difference between "edible" and "choice" and not all choice ones are really very good.

We only pick chanterelles or cauliflower mushrooms.
