For the first time every, and I have been picking mushrooms since a kid, I saw this many little mushrooms in the woods. Thousands of tiny little hats wherever I looked. They looked like little daisies on lawns.
Google says it is some type of Mycena, though to me they will always be Daisy mushrooms.
Very small, about 2 cm across hats on not very long, skinny legs. They look so delicate that I didn't even date to touch them in case I would brake some (though I should check it anyway... you know... experience ;)).
After the rain they were all got shiny and almost see though. I am surprised they survived the heavy rain that caught us in the forest. Maybe they are not as delicate as they look...
They would pop from any possible gap - pushing the fallen leaves and needles. Imagine the giant mycelium all connected to each other and invisible to humans.
Another spot just a couple of metres away with more mosses and grasses. Yep, they are there too.
I was standing there for a bit in complete silence admiring the view. Pretty damn amazing!
I am telling ya...

Traditionally I asked AI image generator what it thinks of my finds.
Last one, cause I got a human silhouette this time.
