Tippler's Bane


October 19, 2016. After the recent rain we attracted this nice cluster of mushrooms which I think are Coprinopsis atramentaria. They are generally safe to eat, but poisonous when eaten with alcohol, hence the name, tippler's bane. Not that I would ever eat wild mushrooms, even if they are on my front lawn, because who knows how wrong I might be! From Flickr http://ift.tt/2e7NEoj
