I'm getting a spore print now, and I'm pretty sure I'll have a lot more in a few days. I'll keep the updates coming.

BTW, jackpot! Chanterelles in your own yard!

Edit: never trust the internet. Consult a proper guide for a positive ID.

    though these are chanterelles, a deadly poisonous look-a-like to rule out are jack-o-lantern mushrooms (named because they glow in the dark!)

    Jack-o-lanterns aren't deadly, they'll just send you to the toilet with a lot of regret.

    generally yes, but children, elderly, immune-compromised, etc. are more susceptible and the toxins in that mushroom could theoretically result in a person's death even if in most cases it usually it just results in vomiting, diarrhea, etc.

    still, it's a good call out that it's not as dangerous as something like Angel of Death.

    It looks like the chanterelle patch that I go to in the woods some 20 min from home. They keep showing up in the same spot every year.
