Found a hand full of libs bout an hour ago and thought it would be nice to share. Theres a Panaeolus sphinctrinus, and another mushroom I picked because Id never seen one before and it looked a bit like a Cyanescen in the picture too. Sorry about the quality, it was a rushed scan.

also i beleive the gaelic term for that mushroom is "pooka" based on a faerie that appeared as an anthropomorphic hallucination (usually a companion, not an adversary, ex, immaginary animal friend).
pooka bacame corrupted in english to pookie or puck.
in the garfeild comic Jim Davis used "pookie" as a name for garfeilds anthropomorphic companion fixation(who he talks to)
in shakesperes "A Midsummer Nights Dream" puck is the wise and mischevious imp who serves as jester and council for the king of the faeries.
in the movie "harvey" Elwood P. Dowd has an immaginary "Pooka" friend named "harvey" in the form of 6 foot tall anthropomorphic rabbit only he can see. a giant immaginary anthropomorphic rabbit also appears in donnie darko, sexy beast, alice in wonderland, and easter.
also in japanese culture, except this rabbit lives on the moon

Thanks for the kind words Mitchnast, didnt know that. I've heard a few pagan friends use the word Pookah but never knew what it meant. I've come across a page about shelters the celts used for tripping while searching for local shroom information before.
Just been out again for a little walk, picked around 50. Mostly very big, alot of blueing. 
This time most of them were ones with the green/brownish, wider caps. Last year was my first year picking, but I noticed the first flush ,when they started growing everywhere at the start of October, were paler with more bell/tear-drop shaped caps. Maybe they were just dryiish but bu November when they were starting to go they were greenish with more triangular caps. I hope it doesnt mean the season will finish early.
