Any hens yet?

Just saw on Facebook the mushroom hunter from Cleveland found his first small hen of the year.
 
My buddy dropped a couple pounds of Hen off earlier he found yesterday

If alone, sautee in butter with a little salt, pepper. Garlic powder. I like to do like that and serve over a good grilled steak, Beef or deer. I made some up today with my stir fry. I've done them with deer roast, brown gravy, veggies. I prefer them over any other mushrooms ive ever had, including morels. Never had chanterelles though

I half-heartedly look for them in the fall, but I get pretty distracted trying to kill deer. :D this is the one fungus I've never found in an edible condition, and one I really want to try. I've heard they are as good as Chanterelles, better to some. I'll be happy to form my own opinion. bon appetite. (y)
 
We got our first rain in a long time last night. I'll start checking yard oaks to the road daily.
 
I've been checking oaks along the road, the recent heat and no moisture fried the hens I've seen.
