Erica with the Chickens

28 August 2009 957 views 4 Comments

This photo was taken last summer, so it’s a little old. But it’s just so cool. She is posed next to what remains of a tree, covered with Laetiporus Sulphureus—chicken of the woods mushrooms.

This mushroom is edible, although we didn’t eat any of them. They are used as a substitute for chicken (thus the name) although some people are allergic. No mushroom should be eaten without a concrete identification by someone who REALLY knows.
