Discovery of ear mushrooms // The excitement of hunting mushrooms in the river

in FungiFriday7 days ago

Good morning to all my beloved hive friends and to all mushroom lovers that I respect ♥️

Yesterday when I was sitting in the hut in front of my house, suddenly a little boy came up to me and immediately invited me to go hunting for beautiful pictures in the forest, at first I didn't want to because my body still felt very weak because of the two days of vacation the previous day, but the little boy kept forcing me, seeing the effort and enthusiasm of the little boy I immediately followed his request.

In the end, I did this image hunting in a river on the edge of my garden, because it would be very easy to get mushrooms on the riverbank because of the cold and humid atmosphere, but I didn't push myself too hard and didn't explore the river too far.

Although this river is not too big, it still has a curve that has deep water, so it would be very risky if we walked through the curve of water, so to get through it we were forced to pamper the edge of the river to be able to pass through it. The little boy who came with me was also very adept at exploring nature because he was a village boy like me who was very used to natural obstacles like this.

We kept walking until we managed to find a beautiful mushroom that also had a beautiful blooming umbrella.

The location of this mushroom is on the edge of the river, so when photographing this mushroom I had to climb a little on the edge of the river to be able to photograph this mushroom well.

This mushroom grows well on the ground and has a cool atmosphere because the sunlight is blocked by several large trees on the edge of the river. And my interest in this mushroom lies in the mushroom buds that look like umbrellas, but are straighter and have colors that attract my eyes.

After I took a picture of this mushroom, I continued my journey to continue looking for mushrooms on the banks of this river. Finally, the little boy managed to find beautiful mushroom that grew abundantly on the banks of the river.

This is what the mushroom looked like when I photographed it from close range.

This small mushroom looks beautiful with its pure white color and with natural carvings on the part of this mushroom, this mushroom itself grows well on coconut fronds which are most likely coconut fronds carried by river water.

But near this mushroom I also managed to find other types of mushrooms.

However, I was the one who managed to find this mushroom, and I managed to find this mushroom when I turned over a dead tree trunk, this mushroom itself looks different from the previous mushroom, and its color also looks very different. And what's advantageous is that this mushroom itself can be eaten and it also tastes very good.

However, after finding some mushrooms on the riverbank, I was no longer strong enough to continue this hunt, plus my body was still very sore, so I immediately ended this hunt and went home. Although very tiring, this activity still made me feel very happy and satisfied.

And as soon as I arrived home I immediately approached the old well behind my house to clean myself first from the mud that was stuck to my feet, but I was so surprised when I found an ear fungus growing abundantly on a piece of wood on the fence of the old well.

Seeing the ear fungus I immediately approached it and took a picture of it.

It seems that these mushrooms grow well on the old wood and this is also very beneficial for me because these mushrooms themselves can also be eaten, so I can not only photograph them, because I can also pick them to be used as cooking ingredients.

This mushroom has a very soft and flexible texture so that this mushroom also has an appearance like a snack. And to prove this, I immediately picked one of these mushrooms.

Even if folded, this mushroom will not break because its texture is very soft, and this mushroom also does not have any smell unless we injure it.

And after doing the photo shoot, I immediately picked all the mushrooms without leaving any behind, and I immediately gave these mushrooms to my aunt to be processed into a very delicious dish.

Well, those are some pictures and stories from me in this post. I really hope this post can provide entertainment for all of you. All of these pictures are purely my own, I took pictures of these mushrooms using the Infinix 10 pro cellphone and I edited them using the Lightroom application

See you again in my next post♥️
