Winter – not yet

It is November and still the winter hasn’t arrived here in Norway. In this time of the year we use to have temperatures below zero and it is time for snow. But we still have a rather warm autumn and in the forest there still grows mushrooms.

On Friday when I went for a walk it was 13 C and the sun was shining. It was a wonderful day. I went to a view point in mye neighborhood, the first photo. The mushroom on the second photo is beautiful even though it is getting old and fading very soon. I am not sure what type it is and if it is edible, but it could be Hygrophorus hypothejus also known as “herald of the winter”.

Autumn in the forest

I love summer but autumn has a special place in my heart. Autumn is the most beautiful season with vivid colors and the crispy air on a sunny September day. The forest is loaded with mushrooms and berries and the green moss ground in the forest are sprinkled with leaves in all the shades of yellow and orange.
