You will find Fungi everwhere. Woodlands Grasslands & roadside verges are good sites to start with. alter look at Bark on trees & Catkins all have a fungus.
Good Luck.
Colin.
Have a look at bms.org
for lists of Fungi n your area |

Welcome scrummy mummy...( shall have to search for your pic now ).....Fungi John is the man for all things shroom shaped on here and i know ALAN recently went on a fungi foray....see his HORNETS post..
I am a novice with fungi but recently bought the collins book "Need to know? MUSHROOM HUNTING How to safely identify edible wild mushrooms"...its a great little book but i think i need a few more until i start to eat anything other than a field mushroom !
edit: Come to think of it?...when people say a fungi foray ...is this searching/foraging...for edibles or just to hunt and photograph interesting fungi? im confuzzled. |

A Fungus foray is to find identify & record all types of Fungi for scientific purposes. Collecting for the pot is discouraged.

Colin. | this would be the view of some people yes. Think there was a thread about this somwehere else...im all for foraging myself as long as you leave some to grow on or tap out some spores. | | |
