if you get caught in a cow pasture...

I've been scouting a cow pasture near my house in hopes of finding mushies.tomorrow morning i plan on searching the field. there is a farm house nearby,but their cars are usually gone in the morning.it is also near a road where cars sometimes pass.
my question is...what is a good excuse in the case that the farmer,or someone else (possibly a cop) sees me and confronts me.i will have a shopping bag in my pocket,tucked away.

Tell them you are looking for snails (escargot). Generally there are snails present on pastures.

You'll be better off if you just don't get caught. If you weren't up to no good you wouldn't be trespassing, right? Better still, try and get permission to go out there first. Don't dress like a hippie/stoner, let them know you wont disturb anything and tell them it's for something legitimate. Gathering cow patties for fertilizer like you said is a good one. Tell them you go to college and are doing some sort of research. Or you could just tell them the truth, who knows? 
Hell, if you're dead set on going out there regardless, just ask them first anyways. If they say yes, yay. If not, well you were going out there anyways so what do you have to lose?
Just remember to respect the land, the farmer's property and the animals that live there. Disturb nothing, don't cut barbed wire or leave gates open, leave it exactly as you found it. Just be respectful and use common sense, really.
Good luck, have fun, make babies

Well there's a couple ways you could be caught. One is just wandering around the land, and another is with a giant cube in your hand. If there are other mushrooms about, picking them as well allows for some feigning of ignorance.

Say you need fungi for a paleolithic diet lol. I would just try not to get caught and wait for the farmer to be gone.

thanks for the thought out response man. i think im gonna ask the farmer if i can collect cow patties. that way i can justify my shopping bag.and if i so happen to grab some patties with mushrooms on them,well wouldnt that be a nice surprise!

There is no good excuse. Unless you asked permission you're trespassing. I and a couple friends were once threatened with a rifle for that by the owner. I have NO desire to EVER repeat that experience... 
It got me seriously into cultivation.

PS, you seem like one interesting character.
I wish it was easier to kick back and get to know each other. 
So many cool people here.
Oh and about the trespassing thing, talk to the owners/farmers! If you have their permission to gather some manure for your garden or something, you will probably be on good terms with them - therefore letting you come back later is possible.

There arent many laws that i like but I don't think it's right to trepass. You should ask for permission.

Cool resposes all, but just say when you find the landowner to ask permission, tell him you need cowshit (manure) for you tomato garden. While at it, ask is he has any fence mending or if you could, by any chance if he has ponds or lakes, and you love bream, brim, panfish, bass, ect, and can I fish? Most cattle farmers have a pond. Offer to help around the farm, make a life-long friend.
Or work hard to make your own farm, and stop thinking about instant gratification and short-cuts.
---EDIT--- that last bit was uncalled for, and a liitle harsh.
-------------------- Rocks speak to me, and tell me this: The Hell Creek formation is a gigantic slab of rocks that covers several western states. It contains an account of the dinosaurs' demise. In the late Cretaceous period, the first Cannabis species appear, and soon after, all the non-bird dinosaurs disappeared. Obviously, marihuana killed the dinosaurs. That giant meteor that smacked the yucatan peninsula right afterwards, coincidence.
