Mushroom - Family Boletaceae Large, gross, rotting, soggy, fly-infested mushroom.  The cap, stem, and gills were all snarky yellowish-olive in color. The pores were very spongy.  The cap was about 13 cm wide. It was growing at the base of a tree in a mixed, but mostly deciduous forest.<br />

Usually I would skip taking a photo of a mushroom like this because it&#039;s decayed and hard to ID. BUT, this one had an awesome, natural bluing reaction when I cut into the flesh. Check out the video...<br />
