Sounds like Panaeolus sp. Were the gills darker in the older specimens?

I think it is psilocybe coprophila, although I believe it was moved to a different genus some time ago.
I wonder how you guys see the spore color. I see no spore print.

I love Deconicas, they are sooo beautifull, much prettier than most Psilocybes. One thing I don't understand about them, Psilocybe montana was supposed to be the type species for the genus Psilocybe. And then all inactive Psilocybes along with montana were moved to Deconica. Shouldn't it have been the other way around??
EDIT: I just realized that this post can seem off-topic, but the mushrooms in the OP are most likely Deconica coprophila.

It is just you.
I agree, Deconica coprophila seems likely.
