Oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus)
Found these old pictures of beauts spotted on a trip to Denmark to visit a friend who migrated there. Despite them being the wild mushrooms I most frequently gather for food (both then and now), I didn’t take these, being relatively new to foraging and terrified there was some Danish lookalike I wasn’t aware of.

I was so hungry after walking so I went to the first nice looking place. It is very artistic inside. I took mushrooms with the garlic sause and grapefruit lemonade with rosemary
I was watering my plants this morning and went to spray down the compost pile…and I found Yellow Oyster mushrooms from my spent oyster mushroom block FRUITING once again out of my compost! It looks like the oyster mushroom mycelium is starting to colonize and eat leaves in the compost so I spread more of the myceliated leaves throughout the pile and surrounded them with additional cardboard pieces. I’m so happy they’re continuing their life cycle! (Also: I keep that weird cage on top of the pile because there’s a hummingbird that likes to perch on it while eating compost flies)
