Fuelled on by my first dismal hunt, and armed with a hell of a lot more knowledge then last time, I decided to go on another full day of shroom searching. Sadly no actives to be found but a superb day all the same.

Look for places that would be especially wet - near creeks and water run offs for instance. Places where the grass growing through is particularly green. Where the air feels a little more moist. Between two slopes is also good.

Yeah water there was a plenty no friendly little shrooms though, think the wildlife must have beat me to them. The roos were definately a little over active imho.

Irritatingly I found quite a few other species that were rather odd/beautiful out there, however I had forgotten the memory card the camera I was using, so only had camera's internal memory to use.

No idea on any to be honest I am very new to this whole mushroom dealio was planning on spending this evening with a few bears trying to work out what they all are. I mostly just took shots of things that grabbed my eye, like the little puffy buggers in the fifth shot which shot a jet of spores out the little hole in the top when you squished them.

It would appear the "bears" were already taking effect when I wrote that haha.

Right, so I thought I would have a newby crack at id'ing my shots, has taken me ages but this is what I have come up with so far:
Pictures 1 & 2: Hygrophoropsis of some sort pehaps Aurantiaca Pictures 3 & 4: Tylopilus Sp. Picture 5: Unopened Geastrum Sp. (I am convinced this is not right :P) Picture 6: Fully open Geastrum Sp. Picture 7: Coprinus Comatus Picture 8: ?????????
I am probably miles off on all of these as they are my first attempts at I.D.'s.
Any ideas and suggestions welcomed I won't even take offence if you want to hang it on me for not having a clue.

I know I keep bumping my own thread here wouldn't mind knowing what some of these suckers are though, and/or how close my guesses were.
Cheers in advance

#6 resembles Geastrum triplex, but that is totally a guess. #5 kinda looks like an aged Bovista plumbea, but again that is just a guess. I'm probably way off.

Awesome stuff thanks a lot and I did better then I thought haha Spent ages trying to work them out. Glad I know what number 8 is now so I can go learn a little about it.
Thanks again, and hopefully I have some more funky finds tomorrow that need an I.D.
