Identify mushrooms?

DarkDusk · 2013-05-11 16:52:11

Hi guys, I was wondering could anyone identify these mushrooms for me, which are growing in my garden under the cover of a tree. They're probably nothing exciting like magic mushrooms ( :D ), but I'd like to know all the same... Thanks in advance!

looks very like St. George's mushroom (Calocybe gambosa). this species has a very mealy smell, which generally confirms Id (not many other species around at this time of year)
