Anyone been dropping any squirrels or picking fall mushrooms. This cool morning has a feel of days gone by when I did a lot more of each. I don't do much shooting anymore but still love hunting/getting out for a slow walk with my eyes and ears wide open.
-
Squirrel season doesn't open up for me until the second saturday in October. I have however picked more mushrooms this year already than the last 3 combined.
-
Yes doesn't get much better then this time of year for a start of all good things! I myself love walking through the woods eyes and ears wide open, or leaning against a tree smoking a cigar waiting for them squirrels to wake up. I have picked a few shrooms this year out of the backyard so far and have shot a few squirrels myself
-
Maine’s season doesn’t start till Oct. and I can’t wait. Red squirrels are open year round with no limits, but too muggy and ticks are too bad to going for the little squawks. I don’t have anything to do with mushrooms, but will keep fishing through the lingering heat till fall gets here.
-
No squirrels or shrooms yet but I did shoot a limit of golf balls with wings yesterday that I cant wait to grill up!

Dove hunting, something else we don’t do in Maine lol.
-
You shoot those doves on State ground Roe? I remember going around Markle as a kid and hunting the sunflower plots with my grandfather and uncles
-
never gotten into fall musrooms except for a couple years ago i found a few hens. what kind of fall shrooms are you finding right now and whats your favorite fall mushrooms? thanks
-
I found an absurd amount of oysters on a tree that's been down for years on my property and never produced before. Also found some gorgeous giant puffballs, both last week.
-
Our small game season opened yesterday. But its to hot to go trampsing through the woods..
But I've been finding some nice puff balls....

A couple days ago I cut some 1" thick disks off the middle section of a puff ball, brushed them with olive oil, sauteed them to get most of the water out, and then used them as pizza crusts. It was pretty good, but real pizza still wins in a taste test.
-
I didn't find any shrooms today but my daughter and I found enough good hickory nuts to make a big batch of cookies. First time I tried them but it won't be the last.

Yes. That's where they came from. First day draw hunt at Markle. Great hunt, lots of birds. Love to eat some doves. Wish I was a better shot but can usually get a limit with 2 boxes!

Found the mother load of chicken of the woods. Other side of tree was loaded too. Unfortunately most were a bit old. Picked 2 more sheepshead and left 5 to grow.
-
Nice!
I wish I had sheepshead in my area.
-
What are these?

I agree. Shaggy mane or AKA Inky Cap. These are edible however I have never eaten them and I do know that you CANNOT drink alcohol if consuming these mushrooms or they become toxic to your liver even days after. There are 2 species and the Coprinus comatus species is the shaggy mane. Coprinus atramentarius has a smoother cap and is the one that will really get you with some booze. However, i have read reports that both species should be avoided if you consume alcohol.
-
IF you do or do not eat them, can you cut one in half and take a picture? I would love to see what that looks like.
-
I will pick one and slice it up when i get home....
Guess i wont pick any to eat if i cant have a beer with them.... :P
-
I just picked four before reading this . And I was gonna try them but had already been drinking so I guess I won't be eating any lol and thanks for the heads up on that !!

Anyone tell me what these are ?
-
Look like buttons that are a bit old already. No expert just my 2 cents. The 1 small one closest to your thumb is still a good one.

my puffball spots are not producing yet this year. anyone else?
I saw one a couple days ago, but I didn't pick it, so I don't know if it was still all white inside.
