I do remember harvesting black walnuts tho and what a chore it was to get to the shell. Very tasty once accomplished and my Mom used them all winter.Kathleenhttp://kaseyskorner.typepad.com/kaseys_kornernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3905148744278712684.post-40185350929236491222011-09-13T22:45:11.152-05:002011-09-13T22:45:11.152-05:00@Holley: I'm with you on the shrooms.

I wish I'd brought my camera along for the Cattails photo, but the cameraphone was a good stand-in.<br /><br />@Julie: Those darn squirrels sure are industrious! They're fun to watch, but they mess things up quite a bit.<br /><br />@Janet: Through my recent posts, I'm realizing how truly lazy I am. Well, after working more than full-time and having other responsibilities, I guess I deserve a little lazy time?<br /><br />@Rose: Yeah, it's a great spot for reflecting (no pun intended). I think the blood pressure drops a bit when we're up there.Beth at PlantPostingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10473637655960119672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3905148744278712684.post-75263689127785566132011-09-13T22:36:30.233-05:002011-09-13T22:36:30.233-05:00@Sage: Yes, weird huh?

I don't think I've seen them before--at least I don't remember them.<br /><br />@Bridget: It's nothing fancy, but it's definitely relaxing.<br /><br />@Phactor: See, I knew I could count on you to help identify the fungi. I'm sure they're poisonous? I'll look up the names you mention.

I keep finding them here and there and toss them somewhere else. They seem to get their job done in the end, because I also often have walnut saplings in the spring!Wife, Mother, Gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10601987822088200476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3905148744278712684.post-28862244657718193182011-09-12T18:04:35.876-05:002011-09-12T18:04:35.876-05:00Don't know anything about mushrooms, except I ...Don't know anything about mushrooms, except I don't like them in my garden! The picture of the reeds is beautiful. My mother was looking for some black walnuts to make a cake the other day. They are hard to find in the store. But, no thanks on having to harvest them! You are right - they are too hard to get out without the proper equipment.HolleyGardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14892421871044249940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3905148744278712684.post-80476502925381900842011-09-12T10:20:20.800-05:002011-09-12T10:20:20.800-05:00Identifying fungi from pictures, or using pictures...Identifying fungi from pictures, or using pictures, is an iffy business. The coral fungus is probably a species of <i>Ramaria</i> many of which look alike to me. The black one is not so easy; my best suggestion is <i>Peziza badia</i>.
