Mushrooms!

Today, I noticed lots of mushrooms under the pine tree in the “North Garden”. I don’t think that we had mushrooms in the garden before. Maybe mulching with wood chips a few years back created the right conditions for them to grow now.

The cap of this mushroom has a diameter of about 4 inches.

Unfortunately, I have no idea what kind of mushrooms these are and whether they are edible. They look like they could be. Wouldn’t that be exciting?
