Meadow Mushrooms

Well we finally found a meadow mushroom. Funny that we never found one before. We think it is Agaricus campestris, I've been searching for this thing since well before I became a fugiphile. Found in a baseball field in the grass growing in a group kind of like a fairy ring.

Pink gills in the button tell us this is not the mildy poisonous
Agaricus californicus

Cap was paler when we first picked it



The quickly forming spore print is dark brown.  The veil is very thin and and the anulus is almost absent.
