The weather hasn't been kind to mushrooms lately. It's been too warm and the humidity has been very low. That is drying up many of them. However Cece Case found a pristine Red-capped Butter Bolete, which she cooked up with onion and bacon. YUM!

Rick and I found two of these edible mushrooms in our forest but they were full of bugs. They don't fruit every year so it's a treat to see them. You can see a blue mark on the stem where Cece touched this mushroom. Staining blue is one of the identifiers of this mushroom.

Once again we have a sunny, low humidity day. While it is beautiful out, we need some rain.

Thanks to Cece for allowing me to share her photo with you here.
