Fruiting now, the Lawyer's Wig
Fungus crops up in groups in the grass.
The shaggy scales on the cap of the fungus are what makes it resemble the wig worn in court by barristers and judges.
The toadstool only lasts a day or so and then dissolves into a black liquid, hence its other name of Shaggy Ink Cap.
