This Morning's Foraging Find

 Agaricus campestris: The Meadow Mushroom!

The Meadow Mushroom can be difficult to ID because it has several look-a-likes, and at least a few of those cause gastric upset. I was lucky to find this stash, presenting in every stage of it's life cycle - making it much easier to identify! The pink gills before the partial veil breaks open is a tell-tale feature for this species.
