Lisa Quagliaroli and Frank Spurlock recently were out looking for King Boletes, also called Porcini. They found a nice haul of these delicious, edible mushrooms.

Lisa said the "babies," the smaller boletes, were well below the duff.  She said it's as if they are so eager to grow, they are muscling each other out of the way.

Thanks to Lisa for allowing me to share her photo with you here.

Clouds have been thickening and it's just beginning to rain. A "moderate" river of rain is set to hit the Mendonoma Coast. Batten down the hatches!
