So yeah, First of all I would like to say hi, ive been browsing these forums for a while now and decided to join today. So I went fishing with my dad to this lake, there was cow shit EVERYWHERE so I decided to see if I could find any magic mushies. Ive been wanting to try them for about three years now but I cant get a connect. Ill appreciate it if you answer the questions I have to. Well here are some pics of the trip. I only found 3 different kinds 
Ok, I was just wondering is this that white myciliam or how ever you spell it? It was under a peice of shit.

This is the first kind I found. Im pretty sure it aint magical lol, but Im not really sure. is it?



I also found these, Im have absolutely no idea what they are. They where growing in a strange environment, Mind telling me if there magical?



Last one i found, and again is it magical?


Here are some pics of the environment, looks lke the best place to find shrooms!

Always make sure when your picking shrooms that theres no spiders on them.
 After I took the pik i noticed the spider and threw that shit so fast lol, Im fucking terrified of spiders I hate them.

Those big ones are Agaricus. Some of them are great edibles, but some of them are poisonous. On the positive side, one easy way to distinguish the poisonous Agaricus species is that they will smell bad (metallic, library paste, phenol). The bad odor becomes stronger as you cook them. If they smell bad while cooking, DO NOT EAT.
Agaricus is a difficult genus to make accurate IDs to species in. Two important features toward doing that are odor and bruising. To bruise one, cut it in half top to bottom, then scrape the inside with your knife edge hard enough to bruise the tissue (pretty hard). Color changes can be rapid or take up to an hour. Odor is usually noticed near where the stem and cap join. If you can't smell anything, try crushing the base of the stem with your fingers and sniffing there.
If it's too late (and they're one of the poisonous species), you won't die from Agaricus poisoning. You'll just have a bad night of nausea, stomach cramping, vomiting, diarrhea, and severe headache.
Happy mushrooming!

You won't find magic mushrooms growing from cow dung in California.
Be careful with those Agaricus you found. The various species can be difficult to tell apart and some are toxic. They are abundant in the Bay Area, and nearly all are Agaricus xanthodermus, a toxic species. A. xanthodermus can be identified by its yellow bruising, especially near the base of the stem, and an unpleasant chemical odor.
If you have a good sense of smell, you would have probably detected something foul as you cooked those mushrooms.
I'd recommend tossing those, as you have not identified them - a dangerous practice.
Sweet cow pic.

your best bet in your area [one i know well] are for Panaeolus subbalteatus, which i occasionaly find in lawns and which may also be found in smaller numbers in the pastureland and on hay stacks which have been left in the elements, or to hear towards the bay area. there are also the occasionaly Gymnopilus finds.
i've hunted mushrooms in the central valley for years.

orchards, parks, river floodplains, riparian systems, campuses, roadsides, etc. there aren't many places i'm not at least passively scanning for mushrooms.
BTW: those boiled agaricus look foul. at least you're eating them on tortilla. i'm a fan of flat breads.
