Sorry, forgot! Was pushed for time when I went by them, they are starting to rot now already.

Will crush one when I'm there next and try that. 15,000 options does not give me much chance/hope...was rather hoping you recognised them as they seem pretty common.

Calling @1066familyman .....loads of these local to me, I keep getting Bloody Milkcap when I try to id them, I can't believe they are edible though. Growing in grass near a Cherry tree that was sawn down 3 years back but roots were never dug out...if its an eater ( unlikely ) I'll tell you...

Cheers for that, there were some Parasols in the area picked 2-3 that had yet to open up but bottled out of eating them as I could not get a 100% ID on them.

Did you get any confirmation on The Prince that you found? I came upon just the one of these and it has the similar spot on the top...I did not pick it as it was the only one..

Cross check online or with a book, there is a nasty one called a Yellow Stainer that looks very like a field/horse mushroom, if cut and heated it turns bright yellow.... avoid !

I'm off for a fishing holiday in Cornwall that day, weather looks iffy for the week so will do some Shrooming down there.

Incredibly pretty.

Now is the time to get Shrooming..found a source of Bay Bolette under a chestnut tree near my work !

Been easing in to Shrooming myself recently, 3 weeks back found plenty of Giant Puffballs while visiting Mrs V's Ma in Shropshire. Not taken anything else for the pot though as been unsure on ID's.. Getting the John Wright River Cottage Fungi book soon to add to the phone app shroom identifier...
