Bleeding Tooth Fungus
A peculiar name for a peculiar fungus is the Bleeding Tooth Fungus or Hydnellum peckii. It grows in coniferous forest and produces a red liquid in its younger stages. It is considered inedible because of very bad taste. This year there are a lot of mushrooms in the coniferous forests around Bella Coola with the rain we have had combined with some warm days making good growing conditions. Maybe the bonus in September will be a good Pine Mushroom season. Grizzly

ReplyDeletewhat an amazing looking fungus never seen anything like that do they come out for long in the valley ?
ReplyDeleteI've seen the fungi throughout the fall, so on a wet year like this, probably 3 months or more. Grizzly
