North Lambton in October:
I have made a few trips to North Lambton in recent days. A stop in Plympton-Wyoming gave me a view of Blue Point with a hint of fall colour.
Lambton Wildlife hosted a very informative iSpy Fungus Walk at the Lambton County Heritage Forest. We didn't cover much distance as conditions were ripe for Fungi to be found in a fairly short stretch of the trail. Reddish Brown Bitter Bolete is in my hand. Some of the souls braver than I tasted a sample and agreed that it was quite bitter.
A member of the Amanita Fungi with the white "skirt" on the stem, is poisonous.
The gills of a Blewet are visible on the underside of this fungus.
I was distracted by many things on the trail. We found a decaying log covered in ants with wings. These ants with wings are at the reproductive stage of life and are looking to find a mate.
