JDog Posted October 11, 2020 Report Share Posted October 11, 2020 They could be Bonnet toadstools called Mycena diosma. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougy Posted October 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2020 Thanks JD, given your info there is quite a number of variants of this species. I'll stick to marmalade on toast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snow white Posted October 11, 2020 Report Share Posted October 11, 2020 Don’t blame you tomatoes on toast is as safe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JKD Posted October 11, 2020 Report Share Posted October 11, 2020 Think it would be safer to eat the twigs etc that they're growing on 🤢 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mighty Prawn Posted October 11, 2020 Report Share Posted October 11, 2020 I’ve had a load of Liberty caps come up on the lawn this week, the wife mowed them out so I reminded her she has technically broken the law by harvesting them albeit to the compost bin we also gets lots of ink caps and an unidentifiable bracket type of the birch stumps never brave enough to munch wild mushrooms too many experts die for my liking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricko Posted October 11, 2020 Report Share Posted October 11, 2020 (edited) I used to photograph a lot of wild fungi then spend time trying to identify them using reference books and the internet. It takes ages because there are so many varieties. I found Birch Boletus an easy one to identify, but just because it is edible it doesnt mean it's tasty!
