I found these today.
They are very tiny - only 30mm across.
I don't know what they are.
They don't have any inky stains when scratched.

There would be a LOT of mushies in a kilo. You'd need to eat them RAW. :rofl

I found another type today.
There were many at the base of a healthy large eucalyptus tree.
I can't identify it properly.
It has an offset stalk on all the mushrooms seen.

It seems almost impossible to identify random mushrooms that I find.
Therefore I can't eat them.

Wherever you go to look for them there sure seems to be a huge variety of them.

Hi BO,
They are wherever you find fields of grass or plenty of trees.
It's been so wet this year that the mushrooms have gone crazy -
growing everywhere I look.
If only I could identify them properly -
I'm sure I could have a great feast every day.

This site gave me a wrong ID
https://fungusid.com/
none had offset stems.

It said any of these but they must be wrong:
49.71% Gymnopilus junonius
33.78% Gymnopilus luteus
4.04% Paxillus involutus

As you know I am wary of them and would never eat anything I wasn't 100% sure about. P knows a lot about mushies though. With some you need to be careful you don't accidentally touch your mouth/eyes without washing your hands first.
