I thought this was a useful picture because it shows all the life stages in one shot of mica caps

Possibly Laccaria laccata, otherwise known as “deceiver”mushrooms. Sure are a lot of them! Running a spore print on them

A cluster of Helvella lacunosa. Have you eaten Elfin Saddle? Reviews are mixed. In any case, must be well cooked.
A really interesting mushroom that produces spores on the cap’s surface.
