Deceivers, West Park
Deceivers are a common mushroom which can be very variable in appearance, particularly when younger. They are then easy to confuse with other species.

Magpie inkcaps, just emerged
More magpie inkcaps in the castle grounds at Bridgnorth. These had probably only come up earlier that morning, so only a little of the white veil has been lost to reveal the darker cap beneath.
These (an other magpie inkcaps featured today) were pictured after the first hard frost of the month. They may not have lasted much longer.
