Seattle: Psilocybe cyanescens, January 7, 2009

[boomer2]

Found in the heart of downtown Seattle a while ago, 7 blocks from my condo, several specimens of Psilocybe cyanescens growing under a ten foot off the ground slab of concrete with a heated air vent blowing warm air over a mulched garden bed of mixed hardwoods.

Here are four images and as usual, I was not looking or expecting to find any and yet here they are.

I was walking and and just looked to my left and there they were.

I, also found a couple of drying ones which had faded to straw color on the 20th of January and some Galerina, Mycena and a couple of Psathryella on the other side of a fence.  But just did not post them. Maybe later today.
