That's California Quail. Although they are called "California" they do very well in Canada and are quite abundant in the Okanagan. Many people here believe the birds are quite stupid, but intelligence is subjective :)
If I had to guess, these look like marasmium. Google it and see if that looks like what you saw :)
Thanks :)
That is a bit of dried flower petals from when the dandelion was blooming.
What a cool looking plant
