Poncy...my American ears have never heard such a word. Thank goodness for google innit haha Yeah, I was shocked to see a bulb on this 56th day of January. Excited to see all the things bloom 🤩

I am really curious as to when my beloved shroomies will return, if? they return in spring. I am assuming they do? I saw one the other day for the first time in a couple months. But yeah, it does feel like we are stuck in the cold and barren a bit longer.

Yes, this is usually the part of the year consider permanently leaving 😁. Not every year but its so grey this past autumn winter I am so happy to going to Spain in a few weeks.

Yay! Omg pls post sunny pics so I can live vicariously 😆 We have had some nice sun this winter, more than I imagined when I moved here. Sunniest Christmas Day in decades, and it also snowed like crazy for the new year, more than in a decade or something. So I feel pretty blessed with the combo.

You do get some coming up in spring but you tend to get most of them in the autumn you might find some on logs still. The autumn flush can go on for quite a while if you don't have a frost though in 2006-7ish its was so mild we didn't get a frost till January so we went mushroom picking on new years eve 😁

Then, I am already looking forward to fall 😁 I love this season thing lol I have never lived somewhere with actual seasons

If you cant find a good Dutch book on mushrooms I can recommend Roger Phillips 'Mushrooms' I'm sure all the species must be the same in the Netherlands.

I am so getting that book🙌 thank you!

Was going to show you it but I have lost my phone, I better go find some lions mane next season 😆. When I do eventually I will try to send you some of the photos I was going to send you before amethyst stopped working for a while.

Its completely random here sometimes sunny, sometimes snowy but usually fairly grey. I have noticed every time the big freeze goes to the states its very mild and very grey here.

Fierce mild some might say 😁
