My dad finds the black trumpets in Arkansas in the summer, along with the yellow chanterelles. His tip is to "look for the holes". Because they won't stand out. You have to be almost on top of them.

I bet I have walked right past them! I do this thing with my eyes when hunting. I say I'm training my eye for golden yellow to find chants. Then they pop out. But if I say black trumpets maybe my brain will listen! I'll try to change gears next time!

Our brains like looking for patterns, that's for sure! I bet if you find one, you will be seeing a lot more! Enjoy all the chanterelles! :D
