Today we went looking for early season wildflowers in the redwoods in Marin County. I especially wanted to find Slinkpods or Fetid Adder’s Tongue. Other earlier bloomers were Indian Warrior, Milkmaids, Woodland Strawberry and California Bay Laurel Trees. Also found were a number of mushrooms and Banana Slugs.

that peachy-colored mushroom is likely Apricot Jelly. Check out this: https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/148093-Phlogiotis-helvelloides
