ooooooh chants are my favorite!!!! i'm not a big fan of eating mushrooms due to the texture most of the time, even some morels a guy overnighted me didn't have a suitable texture but chants i can eat a mess of. they are almost like chicken with the flakiness of fish sometimes and other times it's harder to pin down.

here are some from last season, this season will begin after the big rains of may and theoretically will last til september but i have a hard time finding more than two or three flushes of them. in these pictures are mostly cantharellus variants but if you'll look closely you can see some bright orange cinnabarinus. in the other pics are black trumpets or craterellus, not sure the exact species. i haven't eaten one of those yet but they have the strongest apricot fragrance of the varieties i have found.
