A great hunt foraging for the first of the Wood Hedgehog mushrooms / Hedgehog Fungus in my local woodlands. They are great for cooking and will dry for storage very well.
There's not much similar to this fungus so it is a good one for a foraging beginner like myself to identify safely and stock up on for the 'Dark Winter' ahead.
Adding these to the Ceps / Penny Buns I found a few weeks ago will make for a highly nutritious and healthy base for any meal.
There were also a few Amethyst Deceivers found to sprinkle some color into any cooking so it was a good hunt for edibles.
On the non-edible side of things I found some Cramp Ball Fungus / Alfred's Cakes and so demonstrated how good they are as a natural tinder to take a spark.......then I have a bit of a ramble which was edited down from something 3x as long.
On a serious note, it is very important to learn as many 'outdoor' skills as you can since you never know when you need them.
Having knowledge of natural environments, shooting, trapping, fishing and foraging are literally life-saving skills since without them we die when the current system of on-demand food and easy shopping goes away.....and it will go away at some point - do you want to be the guy fighting a hungry 300lb man-monster or a bloated blue-haired screamer for the last packet of Super Noodles in a ransacked supermarket or do you want to be prepared?
Do you want your pronouns to be Was / Were? ........ nope.
It's a simple choice.
Knowledge is power but we're 'educated' to exist in the system without being taught what the system is and how to navigate the (obvious) pitfalls.
Knowledge costs nothing and can be carried in the mind, given away for free and used to combat ignorance - it's a great deal but takes time and effort to learn useful skills.
Foraging is most definitely one of those useful skills.

To be honest I've not much idea of what Rumble is or does but it seems quite popular among people more tech-savvy than me....and somehow plenty of people have already found the videos judging by the views (and 'Rumbles'?).
Both Odysee and Rumble have new videos uploaded to them as soon as they upload on YouTube.
