Nice to see so many mushrooms while out and about.    It was so dry at this point last year they were few and fair between on the ground.

I’m actually not convinced that the Solidago above is really a Solidago (they’ve split some of the goldenrods out into other genera recently), but all of the alternatives I could find weren’t ever documented in Bennington County (or even a county over in either VT or MA), so it’s going to have to remain a mystery for
