Mushroom Season at Grootbos
Do you know your mushrooms? Mike, the reserve manager has spotted some early mushrooms which have sprouted due to recent rainfall and perfect conditions.
These are blushers, one of the most dangerous mushrooms to forage due to their apparent similarity to panther caps. Delicious or deadly - if you aren't certain, then it is not worth taking a bite.

This one is so delicious, it gets this week's parting shot position.

From all of us at Grootbos Foundation, I wish you a wonderful weekend of simple, natural delights like this.
