Siam Jim....pigs ear is a slang term for another pezizale sp mushroom....ive also heard discina perlata refered to as pigs ear...and to confuse matters more there are members of Gomphus sp. that are referred to as pigs ears. Pic number 5 is a "box" gyromitra , not to be confused with G. infula or G. esculenta.

Nice, I'm pretty sure I saw #7,mica caps coprinus micaceus, when I was morel hunting yesterday.

Very nice Greys

I've no luck yet, just started raining tonight, and won't be able to look till the weekend again

I too found some mica caps, though in the log pile by the fire pit

The morels look delicious.

thanks shroomseeker....i use a cannon a610 and take a ton of shots!lol

freaky, pretty much everywhere up north people are finding a few. those in the pics were from south western LP. Alot of my areas south of me got frost damage......

ALL that I have found is one Dryads Saddle and an unidentified small polypore. Stupid morels.

The lack of Dryads and Coprinus in my area does make me wonder what is out yet in my back yard, tho. Dryads especially, Polyporus squamosus, should be everywhere I look.

I'm digging that devil's urn, thanks for sharing!

I have to agree Bobcat, there's very little fungus growing near me at present.

I've only spotted the mica caps, and some polypores. Gonna give it another shot tomorrow night, or this weekend. Shitty weather!

Greys, I'm glad you're having luck! I am hoping in a week or two Northern LP will be a treasure chest

Nice finds!
Just found my first morels of the year on May 2. Got about 2 pounds.
