Mushroom season continues in the forests of St. Petersburg

Residents of St. Petersburg continue to pick mushrooms, while other Russians decorate Christmas trees for the New Year. The townspeople share their catch on social media, reports 78.ru on Friday, December 12th.

The mushroom season was supposed to end in October, but residents are still posting photos of the results of their walks in the forest in the public "Mushrooms and Mushroom Pickers of St. Petersburg" on VKontakte.

So, on the eve of the Lomonosov district, fans of the "quiet hunt" were able to collect a whole basket of winter honey mushrooms, oyster mushrooms, rowels, chanterelles and hummingbirds.

The pictures also show red marsupial sarcoscypha mushrooms, which grow up in a Specific park in the Primorsky district. Petersburgers are being urged to "sharpen their knives" and run into the woods.

Earlier it was reported that a black mushroom was found on the walls of one of the most radioactive buildings in Chernobyl, which is supposedly capable of absorbing radiation. Under the influence of radiation, the fungus not only did not die, but also accelerated its growth.

All important news is on the Izvestia channel in the MAX messenger.
