2010-10-05 Eggs, Mushrooms & Sweet Potato

These are the eggs, or egg cases of the Praying Mantis, we find them under rocks or on wood, as in this case


they feel like paper, and are hundreds of small segment's which if you run your finger over the top, fan out.


Strange, but true !












More mushies, these were growing in our garden......just an ordinary field mushroom.


Very tasty..







Here is one, just emerging, under the tomatoes !







and by the new compost bins.........







Our very first (and not very big) Sweet Potato........also tasty....







after lunch the same day, we went up the mountain and collected
27
of these, st Michaels..


a type of Parasol Mushroom, also Delicious !!!
