King Bolete

not seen this one b 4

They can really be large. I watched a rock squirrel eat half one in a sitting while resting on a small mountaintop I'd climbed. Huge bites that he would spend long minutes chewing and watching us, cheeks stretched. Nice young plump one like this. Wonder if I still have those shots around here somewhere... :-)

Oh yum and beautiful. I am on the lookout for giant puffballs my favourite shroom.

I should also start to look out for these, love fungi.

ermm will have to go look in the woods lol

I've had puffball all over there this year, small but lots! Bolete is common many places, but not always clean, so look for little fresh ones. They can sit for weeks. Most are edible.
