I waited exactly six days before revisiting the nice little patch of dinky morels I has spotted last week, and was rewarded for my efforts.
As nice as this find is, a few other recent forays have not been successful. I believe we’re just at the beginning of morel season, and this week’s warm temperatures should hopefully get things going. A little rain is in the forecast, and that would help too.
Even though I returned empty-handed from a few ventures, I still enjoyed my tramps – lots of wild flowers are in bloom, and seeing them some thing I enjoy as as much — okay, almost as much — finding a nice fruiting of morels.
Virginia bluebells.
A wee little baby morel.
A very pretty yellow violet.
Lesser Celandine.
Large patch of lilies of the valley, not yet in bloom.
The bluebells, again.
Lilies of the valley. And a morel.
Jack in the pulpit. And a morel.
