Sigh... yet more unwelcome fungal residents in our yard. This time, several phallic-looking morels, each with a thick shaft a couple of inches in diameter, in the leaf mulch in the side yard. The kids think they're weird... as long as they don't touch the things. Gah.

Oooh, recipes! (I know that even mycologists end up needing liver transplants, but if there's an expert you can ask to make sure they're morels -- they aren't really like other mushrooms -- you might be in luck. :)

And yet, and yet, doesn't this mean that there's proper biological activity happening?

Me, I don't like *bugs*. Mostly.

If you have leaf mulch, you have fungi. Morels are meant to be rather nice, but given allergies, maybe you should invite some local fungi fanciers to enjoy them?

Is there any way to tell that they're really morels? Because if they are, I'd be perfectly happpy to get them off your property. I'd even be willing to share them with tenacious_snail, and not eat them in front of you. :)
