Mushroom

I found this wonderful mushroom growing in our wild area at Harbour Club Villas.

After all that wonderful rain that we’ve had, this wild mushroom suddenly appeared just up behind one of our villas.  I asked my favourite biologist and good friend Nicky whether he thought it was edible or not. He seemed to think it was but I wasn’t prepared to give it a try. Nicky’s the only one that seems to know so many things about the flora and fauna of the islands as well as being able to give me names and tell me what different things might be!!!  Apparently out at Tucker’s Hill on Providenciales there used to be edible mushrooms growing there that he would harvest.
