SUMMARY:Spring Fruiting Mushrooms in Southern Oregon by "Fry\, Thrive\, or Die" Author Michael Amaranthus
DESCRIPTION:On Monday April 8th\, from 7-8pm\, Northwest Nature Shop in Ashland will be hosting world renowned Mycologist and Scientist Michael Amaranthus who discuss spring fruiting mushrooms in Southern Oregon. \nDr. Mike recently published “Fry\, Thrive or Die”\, a fun pocket guide to western US mushrooms.  Edible? Medicinal? Hallucinogenic?  Poisonous? Dr Mike will share what you need to know about mushrooms and their uses. \nIn his presentation\, Dr. Mike will highlight local mushroom species that grow in our area. The guide and the talk will prepare folks to hunt and serve wild mushrooms\, as well will delight with stories\, history\, possibilities\, recipes\, and more. \nFry\, Thrive or Die is a pocket-sized field guide to the most prominent and distinctive wild mushrooms in the Western United States. Each species is identified with a detailed color picture\, distinct features\, as well on habitat\, fruiting timing\, edibility\, creative uses\, and dangerous look-alikes. The talk will highlight some must-know species in our area. Many of the current guides are decades old and in crucial need of update on edibility\, medicinal benefits\, toxicities\, and other uses. \nMushrooms attract a distinct audience. There are wild mushrooms that make a splendid meal\, can alter your mind\, improve your health\, potentially save your life\, or end your life. The talk is suitable for both beginning foragers as well as experienced mushroom maniacs who seek new information on mushroom medicines\, hallucinogens\, toxins\, innovative applications\, and edibility. Happy hunting and fry\, fly and thrive! \nAbout the Author:\nDr. Michael Amaranthus \nDr Mike Amaranthus is a world-renowned mycologist and scientist\, who even has several mushroom and truffles named after him and is the recipient of the USDA Highest Award for Scientific Achievement. Dr Mike and his wife Eileen founded Mycorrhizal Applications Inc. the world’s largest producer of mycorrhizal fungal products.  Dr Mike believes “fungi” should emphasize “fun”. As a two- time cancer survivor\, getting to know this fantastic group of mushrooms has enriched and perhaps saved his life. He believes that a mushroom presentation cannot only be accurate and have substance but be entertaining as well.

SUMMARY:Introductory Fall LICHEN Hike!
DESCRIPTION:Hi there local Naturalists! \nI\, Nolan Richard\, am thrilled to lead a Lichen Hike from 10am-3pm on Saturday October 21st to Pilot Rock! \nThis hike will serve as an introductory field lichen class focusing on lichen anatomy\, biology\, ecology\, and of course…  identification. I chose Pilot Rock for the diversity of habitats (young and old conifer forest\, oak woodland\, meadow\, and rocky habitats)\, which will give us a great lichen diversity. \nThe hike itself will be slow paced\, relatively short (3-3.5 miles) with up to 450 ft of elevation gain. We will do some exploring of the PCT\, the trail to Pilot Rock\, and “Pilot” meadow (The large meadow below Pilot Rock). We will meet at the Northwest Nature Shop at 9:50am. \nPlease bring… \n\nWarm clothes and good shoes (there is a good chance of cold and rain this time of year) – I’ll update you with weather as the date approaches. We will reschedule if the weather is bad or if there’s too much fresh snow covering the ground.\nLunch and water.\nA loupe/magnifying glass for looking at small lichen features. Important!! (Available at the Nature Shop)\n(Optional). A copy of  “Macrolichens of the Pacific Northwest” by Bruce McCune if you have one. (A couple copies available at the Nature Shop).\n\nPlease RSVP by emailing nolrich829@gmail.com (Limited to 12 participants). Class costs $20/person. \n \nCheers\, Nolan \n\n\nExpect to learn… \n1.  The basics of how lichens work and what they are composed of. \n2. How to go about identifying them. (Using terminology\, categorizing) \n3. The characteristics of the common lichen genera (8+ genera) along the trails\, and a couple less common genera.

SUMMARY:The Great Gray Owl in Jackson County
DESCRIPTION:Harry Fuller\, author\, birding guide and former resident of Ashland\, will discuss the habits and habitat of the elusive great Gray Owl.  Jackson County is a hotspot for this species.  This county may have more resident Great Gray Owls than all of California\, where it is endangered. Thankfully\, the birds are breeding this year as was not the case last year due to drought.  Fuller will share some of the beautiful images captured by a small coterie of Great Gray Owl lovers who live in or near Ashland. \nHarry Fuller is co-author of The Great Gray Owls of California\, Oregon and Washington. He is a birding guide and former president of the Klamath Bird Observatory’s Board of Directors. He was co-founder of the Ashland Christmas Bird Count\, now over a decade old and going strong. \nPresentation is free at 7 pm at Northwest Nature Shop\, 154 Oak St.\, Ashland on Tuesday June 13th.
