I have been hunting hard for these guys as last year I was blanked. Finally found a good cluster for mushroom soup. These are my favorite mushrooms for eating by a long shot.

I love how they blend right in and coincide with when small cluster of oak leaves fall. I would bet that is on purpose so they are not eaten, but my eyes did not fail me this time.

Bonus Eastern box turtle. They are moving around this time of year getting ready to hibernate.

I have these all over my yard right now. Or I think I do. Google identified them as something else that I can't remember though.

They grow at the base of oak trees and are very unique in appearance. Feel free to share some photos over and I can confirm for you.
