These pictures were taken with a really cheap digital camera (Sipix Blink). They are just to document what I find on my property. I went to my first mycology meeting in the beginning of October this year--Autumn 2002 was really awesome mushroom season up here in Central NY!

Note:

How to collect mushrooms if you want to identify them: make sure you get the entire mushroom, including the base underneath the ground, like this.
