We had our first fresh #mushrooms of the year for lunch yesterday. Couldn't find many of them, just the four because they prefer growing out of melting snow that we didn't have this early spring, but they are substantial and were healthy so we added a few young #asparagus spears and parsley greens from the garden to the meal and, together with a dandelion greens salad picked at the #forest margins, it was well worth the slightly frustrating weekend walk in the #woods.

It is not a glowing review of Panasonic 20mm F1.7 ๐คทโโ๏ธ
My search for a reasonably-good M43 pancake lens continues...

We had about two hours of sunshine in the afternoon today so I took advantage of it and went for a short stroll in the woods with a pocketable large-ish sensor camera in my hand. It's really interesting how fast new beds of mushrooms crop up in spite of cold-ish late autumn weather.
Species info, as usual, in the alt texts / photo descriptions.

Lactarius rufus, commonly known as the rufous milkcap or red hot milk cap. Shame they're considered inedible due to its acrid taste and even potentially poisonous (causing gastric upset), because they were everywhere, growing at the margins of a pine forest in large clusters under moss and grass. Still pretty though.

There's an incredible diversity in the world of fungi and I just love observing all the different strategies they've developed to not only survive but thrive in the ever-changing world they live in.
