    Few pics of silage cows bull and rushes lots of rushes you can see the field that got the licker.

    Small bull or tall rushes? :D

    I take it the field with the 2 cows is the one that was licked? Do you find there is much poaching of the land where the rushes are?

    Place is over flowing down there! Grain is right up to the gate. Even the lads tipping up trailers are in the way of the lads driving in the the bridge!

    Doesn't taste that strong. It's known as the breakfast mushroom because it goes well with eggs. Gave one to a mate and used it instead of toast with scrabbled egg

    Cut it in half. If its still white all the way through its good to eat

    Some time in November, weather and trade dependant I suppose. The most will be around the eight month mark at that time of year
