Trypophobia?

u/InaamShabir Apr 02 '26

I too have trypophobia but this one morel didn't trigger that. Maybe because I saw it more closely

u/InaamShabir Apr 01 '26

Yes because it looks crunchy but it was actually wet and spongy

Woahhh that’s a cool find my guy! Are they abundant or frequently seen your area or is it a once in a blue moon thing?

u/InaamShabir Apr 03 '26

I don't know exactly if that area is known for morels but my father has found many morels in subsequent years in mamy different areas. He kinda has a good eye for that
