Not a Honey Fungus! A Psathyrella multipedata!

Thank you for the very kind comments on the greenfinch photo.

Thank you very much, Nick, for the ID. :t:
Habitat

Location
Berkshire
Date taken

They really have mushroomed, haven't they? Another super close up shot, Kits!! tfs.
 
Nice photo!

This should be Psathyrella sp. rather than Honey Fungus (which generally has whitish gills, scaly caps and rings 'round the stems).

Psathyrella is a tricky genus and generally needs microscopic examination to be 100% sure of an ID but I think P.multipedata could be a contender here.

Thank you, Nick. That is very helpful. :t: I shall change the caption.
