Some Colourful Fungi

Woke early and went for a walk before breakfast on Anzac Day and found a few interesting looking fungi. The first two species were found growing here where I live, which makes about eight or nine that I've seen.

I came across this pink one which I've not seen before. It has one trait which I didn't note until I'd taken the pic, the edge of the gills are the same colour as the top.

This is possibly a Russula species,
could be Russula persanguinea.
(my thanks to Elfram for the ID)

Then I found this one which was a bit nondescript above but magic from below







A walk in the afternoon was glorious in the autumn sun and I made a couple of interesting finds.

Not sure what this brown one is, however it is so distinctive in appearance that I think it should be relatively easy to identify. I'll post an ID as soon as I have one









On the way home I came across a small group of fungi that had been overwhelmed by a mould of some description. They smelt even more revolting than they looked.









Well it is now the 27^th of April and there is some more rain falling, soft but steady and enough to do some good. Should soon be a lot more fungi popping their heads up so that I can shove a lens at them. I'll keep you posted
