Ian holding a large eastern jack-o’-lantern mushroom in front of a fallen oak tree

Hi Bluesky! Ian here. I’m on a long bus ride and it feels like a great time to start posting. This is me holding an eastern jack-o’-lantern mushroom (omphalatus illudens), aka the false chanterelle. This is the fifth year/season of my mycology obsession, so sometimes I’ll post about that. #🍄
