Grey spotted amanita, spots removed by rain

Grey spotted amanita mushrooms: the spots, the remains of a veil which protects the fungus as it emerges through the soil, had been removed by rain which had also washed out some of the colour from the caps.

These were on a lawn by a main road, a place where they come up at around this time every year.
