Fungi Fever! : The cool, permanently damp environment of Sitka and surrounds makes for excellent, sometimes spectacular fungus growth. The variety of mushrooms, fungus and lichen that thrive in this temperate rain forest means that someone like me (a fungus fan) will always find a suitable subject to photograph. I am going to try to identify as many of these as I can and have procured two books so far to that end. One is "Alaska's Mushrooms, A Practical Guide" by Harriette Parker, the other is a Falcon Guide- "North American Mushrooms, A Field Guide to Edible and Inedible Fungi" by Dr. Orson K Miller Jr. and Hope H. Miller. Both have good photos and information to help a newbie mushroom enthusiast like me. I thought I ought to identify my sources... If anyone sees a mis-identification, please comment so I can correct my captions! Note: I am in no way, shape or form an expert on mushrooms. These photos are strictly to show local mushrooms in their respective environments in an artistic way. My feeble attempts to identify them are amateur at best and should NOT be taken as in any way accurate. I am interested in mushrooms and photographing and trying to identify them is a hobby. Because many mushrooms may at least cause a bad bellyache, and in the worst case cause organ failure or death, please consider this a disclaimer and statement that any information listed in this gallery is probably inaccurate. I only eat mushrooms purchased at the grocery store.
