User's notes

Photo 1 shows the specks of "mica" on the caps - these can quickly disappear. Photo 2 shows the gills from left to right, which are white under the very small cap (not clear in photo), grey under the next 2, then finally the 4th black with age.. This fungus is growing on soil around 2-3 old stumps.
