One last indulgence from today.

Delicate little beauty if ever there was one.

The woods I went to today were smothered :thumbsup:

Mainly Amanitas, Boletes, Funnel Caps and Milk Caps. Some Russulas and Coprinus about too.

I took nothing for eating. Mainly because I never fvck with Amanitas (Blushers and Panther Caps present), the Boletes were all pretty old and drenched from last night's rain and I'm wary on Milk Caps too.

I'm away in the New Forest this weekend and we saw a lot of fungi on a walk out this afternoon. This beauty was the best.

Not much, and they won't go far, but a little something for the pot today.

Stumbled upon a couple of clumps of these unusual Mushrooms, which I have never come across before. Anyone have any idea what they are? I found them yesterday afternoon whilst walking the hound in the country. I chanced it and added them to the Sunday roast and must say it was the best roast dinner I have ever had!

Can’t make them out without the stem, so either closed parasols or the prince?

You're right the first time. Young Parasols, so still closed. Plus a couple of small Shaggy Ink Caps.

I've not seen The Prince for a long while. One of the few Agaricus I trust enough to eat.

When we had the very uneven lawn at Jakarta Towers re-done from seed a few years back the chap who did it dug over the old one and then spread the best part of a foot of new soil mixed with spent compost from a local Mushroom Factory - locals to RH20 will know who they are.

As a consequence we get shrooms coming up out the lawn on a regular basis. I presume if they are from the Factory they MUST be edible?
