As we were walking in the park, we saw these Jack o'Lantern mushrooms.  We knew what they were because we've seen them before, just not in this spot.  But I checked the Seek App anyway.  And it said that Jack o'Lantern mushrooms often sprout at the base of decaying or living trees.  Yep, that's where we found these, at the base of a tree that fell down a few years ago.  

 

They are bright orange, and easy to see.  But here is a warning:  they are poisonous, and can cause serious gastric distress when eaten, raw or cooked.  When I know that a mushroom is poisonous, I don't even touch them.  But I do love to look.

 

 

HAPPY GARDENING!!!
