Hello All,

Today, I found a HUGE toadstool/mushroom down at Grahams Grove here in Dartmouth. It was somewhat spotted with a large stem. It was, at least 8 - 10 inches in diameter.
I also found, under our back deck, another very different looking, small 'fungi' (circumference, no bigger than a Toonie) bright orange & almost plastic/rubbery in appearance & texture.
I have pictures of both if anyone could identify them, I would be very appreciative.
Also, is there a sight/resource that one could go to, that would identify edible mushrooms found here in the Maritimes and ones that are poisonous? 

Thanks in advance,

Gayle MacLean
