First PNW ID request

Hello,
This is my first time posting here, but definitely not the last. I just moved up to Washington state and am near Olympia. I went for a walk today around my neighborhood to get to know some surroundings and hopefully stumble upon cool mushrooms. I found my way away from civilization a little bit as I usually do and I stumbled upon these guys.
 I thought they kind of looked like Psilocybe cyanescens and I'm hoping for a positive ID! Thanks!

Look to be Cyans to me. I'd still wait for a TI to be safe.

First pic is too washed out to say anything with certainty.

No, some of them in the first pick were different. didn't realize it was so washed out. just the ones in the middle were mature, so i wasn't certain, but some of the other mushrooms i thought were cyans. the rest were just some white mushrooms.

Thank you for the positive ID! I'm going back tomorrow to scout around that area for more. My first day of hunting successful within the first hour. Sweet!
Are there mushrooms that can easily be confused with p. cyans?

Yes there are... in my experience Ive seen some that look like cyans but they are: - much smaller - a bit flimsier - Cap is more yellow in color no blueing the pins have white all hanging like that - stem is white no blueing - have a deep yellow orangish spore print I threw it right out I was afraid !
sorry for the s**ty pics I'll get more I've seen others around
 
ALWAYS take a spore print For peace of mind, positive identification, and to spread the species 
Nice finds!! Happy Hunting
