A Walk in the Woods
A few days ago I went to the forest with a friend to reload some energy and to collect mushrooms, the so called Çıntar. The Çıntars are only for a few weeks 'available' in some of the forests.
It is a huge passion of many to collect as many as possible to stock up for winter and of course food free of charge beside the extreme exercise ofcourse.
Non of these are eatable, but just beautiful.
I guess this one will tickle terrarium lovers, some beautiful moss.
I have always loved the amazing details of wild mushrooms, although this one is not eatable either!
The weirdest thing I came across was this...
The forests are full of wild boars (swines). And of course as every living creatures it has it needs.
I was amazed how some kind of plants was growing out of their poops :)
This little guy was in the middle of the forest having a little rest.
The Çıntars are hidden in painful bushes under leaves. It is like searching for Eastern eggs but a bit painfull due to the thorns and branches.
Aaaah bummer, this one is a fake and not eatable....
But this bucket full is our harvest, and we have enjoyed them!
