The Sickener (Russula emetica)




The sickener causes the eater to vomit. A merciful fate considering the alternatives some other mushrooms offer.

I was just hiking in the sierra's and came across these mushrooms: Do you recognize them?

At least these mushrooms hint at their toxicity with those bright red caps too. Cool shots!

I took a picture of one of those it's on my blog in aprils archives. I think it was my second ever post on my blog. They are so amazing aren't they.

wow, i don't think i'm getting that cool of photos with my camera.

i don't know, you will have to go to me flickr page and be the judge.

problem is, i had a pervert blog a photo of my daughter on a porn site. so you won't be able to see all my pics unless you have a flickr account and i add you as a friend.

had to tighten up the ship a bit on all the security settings on that flickr page.

one man lover even favorited a photo of my husband....it thought that was a little sick.

although i'd have to agree with the perv, he is HOT! lol!
