This large beauty is a fairly common species that can be found solitary or in groups, and even in fairy rings in pastures! Can you identify this mushroom?

Answer Parasol Mushroom

Macrolepiota procera, also known as the Parasol Mushroom, is a large, prominent mushroom featuring a scaly cap, white gills, and a pale brownish stem. Be careful: this edible mushroom appears similar to the poisonous Chlorophyllum molybdites, also known as False Parasols.
