Bit early for muscaria? Like several months early?
We're in peak season for them in the southern hemisphere, so it's a bit unusual to see them fruiting in the north. But then I don't know the area, maybe some of them just like to fruit in spring there?
Definitely weird, several months earlier than the earliest expected month afaik.
Found the picture when going through my the images from our last holiday, it's from August 2023
Very cool! Were you going out specifically looking for mushrooms or just happen upon one? I've always wanted to see a real Euro-asian muscaria in person, the nice red guys. Very jealous :)
