Eastman had called them "reddish or orange-buff." Without taking them apart and making spore prints and all that, we will probably never know what they are.Jacqueline Donnellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13390548854179921303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2662118368553266438.post-1688055841194559092009-09-22T12:54:27.328-04:002009-09-22T12:54:27.328-04:00I looked up the depressed hedghog, and it's no...I looked up the depressed hedghog, and it's not a red mushroom at all! It's tan, and very toothy below - as in it looks like it has fangs hanging underneath.<br /><br />So, whatever this lovely red mushroom is, we found it at Moxham Pond bog, too.Ellen Rathbonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17684750034177425795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2662118368553266438.post-18645321429974809422009-09-18T22:29:15.282-04:002009-09-18T22:29:15.282-04:00Thanks, Squirrel, catharus, and Ellen, for your co...Thanks, Squirrel, catharus, and Ellen, for your comments. As I think you can tell from my blog, I was just thrilled to explore that bog. We don't have any near my home, so this was a trip. In more than one sense, since it was at least an hour from home. So were those tiny new flowers. I wonder if I will ever see them again.Jacqueline Donnellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13390548854179921303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2662118368553266438.post-18109678669469824092009-09-18T13:48:29.769-04:002009-09-18T13:48:29.769-04:00I'm thrilled you finally got your eyebright! ...I'm thrilled you finally got your eyebright!

I'm very familiar with the sinking feeling in making your way around a bog [or vlei :)], both here locally (central PA) and in your neck of the woods from my recent hike on the NPT.<br />Thanks again!catharushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05603292208345268247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2662118368553266438.post-73354546314702046542009-09-18T10:24:05.079-04:002009-09-18T10:24:05.079-04:00Thanks for the info on your camera.

This just might be the ticket.squirrelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12297406366801045392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2662118368553266438.post-54902031988578735142009-09-18T10:19:20.544-04:002009-09-18T10:19:20.544-04:00I loved reading about you bog adventures in this p...I loved reading about you bog adventures in this post and the previous one. I love them and wish I lived closer to one. The plants are so very interesting. Those Eastman books are amazing aren't they. And Wagner too. Enjoy your weekend. I look forward to reading about your next adventure.squirrelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12297406366801045392noreply@blogger.com
