It is quite early, yet there is action in the fields. After seeing posts on a Norwegian forum of finds the last week, I decided to head out just to check a forest tractor path I've had my luck with the last couple of years. And they were there!
Just came back in, having a beer and a few sandwiches as I post this.

Great pics. I feel like I am semilanceata hiding in the grass. Nothing like some beers and sandwiches after a hunt.

So I made it out to the same spot this evening. It was good. I more than doubled the haul from last time, it is a really good spot this year. Can't believe I've found this many and it isn't August yet, even. I'm not used to be attacked by horse flies while hunting libs.

That's awesome Anglerfish! 
I'm yet to head out and check the nearby habitats. It has been pretty warm in here and not too much of rain, but everything seems to be early this year. Pholiotina cyanopus season has just kicked off in here, so that'll keep me busy for a moment.

Went to check the meadow behind my house if it was a suitable habitat for Psilocybe semilanceata. I started walking on a forestry machine path and came into a conclusion - no, not a suitable habitat. I changed the lane, started heading back to my house and bumped into these. 

About 50m from my house.

Hey, nice velho! Seems like it's starting to happen. Please don't hesitate to post some of your P. cyanopus pictures as well.

Hello from Latvia! Could you please post pictures with the habitat ? I've only found in them while i was living in Wales and there they were in every field where the sheep gazed, but they are not so often here in Latvia, so struggling with the habitat. Also what's the weather been like in Norway ? Here it's not below 10celisus in night, just wondering if that's a necessary factor.
Thanks a lot, and happy hunting (you've awakened my appetite )

That's amazing Anglerfish! Nice photos!  I would love to see some habitat pictures from the tractor paths 
I have checked some places last week without finding any. But today I scored the first 4! Also from a tractor path in a forest.

Here with some bilberries (very good season for this berry this year), raspberries, and wild strawberries (Fragaria vesca) 
There's some habitat photos in this post from 2018 when I found about 100: https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/25439926#25439926

Nice finds knarkkorven and nice berries aswell! Very good berry season for sure this year. I've stopped several times on my walkabouts just to eat the berries, especially the wild strawberries. I gotta go collect some bilberries aswell for the winter, nothing beats a nice bilberry pie on a cold wintery evening.

Nice to see you around, KK. 
I must say I was really surprised to find so many already in July, I have been two times to the tractor path and collected around 30 grams dry, perhaps something around 700 liberty caps. They were growing in almost every tuft of grass in certain areas. The path itself is around 3-400 meters in length, partly covered in grasses and thistles, with sandy clay soil. I'll head back there next week and get some habitat shots. I could have taken a lot more pictures when I was there already, but I was constantly attacked by a variety of biting insects. And you probably know it is a bit of work picking small musrhooms out of dense tufts of grass.

Anglerfish, I read in one of the previous nordic threads that you said that in norway we can freely walk into fenced off pastures. Because of allemannsretten.
I tried looking for this on miljødirektoratet's website. The closest I found was this statement: "ikke forstyrre husdyr på beite. Lukk grinder etter deg". I guess this is implicitly stating that you're allowed in?
If we actually have this right, how can I explain this to the farmer in a nice way?

Yes, we are freely allowed to move anywhere we want in what is known as "utmark" - best translated "outer fields" - which means any areas except ones with residences. So as long as you shut the gates behind you and don't disturb animals, you're free to roam.

You will normally not have to explain anything to the farmers as long as you follow rules stated. I have only once been confronted, and that was probably because I was moving a bit too close to a horse stable. In any case, just be polite and say hello if you meet anyone. People will usually mind their own business.
