Images

Keep in mind that I am always looking for images for our newsletter; fish, sunsets, sunrises, other anglers fishing, equipment, anything fishing related. I can use them all.  Large, unedited images are best. Thanks.

This is what I found, just by looking a bit. It looks to be in the Amanita family and it is filed under a toxic mushroom as far as I could tell. a little about it: the "Yellow patches" as it is known (of the Amanita family) gets its common name from the yellow bits of the universal veil on its orange cap.(the caps can be red, yellow in this family) The universal veil is made of tissue and completely covers the young mushroom. As the mushroom grows it eventually breaks through the membranous veil and pieces of it are left behind on the cap. Rain can wash them off, but since we’ve had so little rain the patches have stayed in place on this example.  This mushroom is in the amanita family and is considered toxic. The amanita family contains some very dangerous mushrooms, so we should never eat ANY mushroom that we aren’t 100% sure is safe". I still haven't found how this one is, but since you see that the family is considered toxic it is but there is another that looks similar called the Devil's
