Out for an early morning walkabout.

Although finished for the season this is a very mature saskatoon berry bush/tree: They're not native to the area and were brought here by my BIL's great aunt from Regina.

Note the knife for size comparison.

 

One removed and resprouting:

Wild rose hips starting to turn. These won't be ready until after a frost:

And finally I've tentatively identified these as huckleberries but am unsure. They are partially shriveled since it's been very dry recently. Anyone?

The only mushroom I've seen were Amanita pantherina which are deadly toxic. It's been too dry and have not seen any other types.
