ID Request - Possible P. Cyanescens?

Hello everybody,
I was walking my dog today and happened to notice this large patch of what look to me like Psilocybe cyanescens. I have never found any before, so I was wondering if somebody could help me ID them. Sorry about the poor picture angles/quality... hopefully this is good enough to make an ID. Thanks in advance.
Habitat: Found in wood chips in a public park growing gregarious to cespitose.
Gills: The gills are a brownish color. The gill attachment is adnate/subdecurrent.
Stem: Whitish, bruising blue, up to 6mm thick, up to 90mm long
Cap: Brownish color, bruising blue, up to 40mm across.
Spore print color: Purple. I do not have a good spore print yet (still working on this), but it is definitely purple. I'll update this post later with a spore print if necessary.
Bruising: Both the cap and step have significant bruising.
Location: Near Everett, WA

No offense but like you said those pics are really awful. How did you attach them to your post? I wish I could blow them up. From your description it could be but without better pics I don't think anyone could say definitively.

Your ID request seems like a copy and paste ID from a wiki on P. cyanescens. Without better pictures, pretty much everyone is going to feel deep down you are full of poo.

I don't believe they are cyans
Better photo and spore print would help

Cooler than P. cyanescens. They are Psilocybe baeocystis. The common name is Potent Psilocybe, which refers to their relatively high content of norbeaocystin.
