@ CorduneanuVlad. Yes, I think you're correct. My sister told me they are called Field Mushrooms.
She actually harvested quite a few of them in her backyard.
She fried them up at Dinner time. I didn't eat them though, because I wasn't 100% sure and neither was she actually.
She ate though....and she's still alive. lol :) The other spotting I posted and you commented on, is the same kind of Mushroom, just bigger.
Thanks for taking the time to comment.
