Not a great picture (Nick's camera-phone), but any chance anyone can
guess the
mushroom identity?

It was growing in a tray of flower-seedlings, where I had shoved the
packet in
the edge of the soil and it had got damp.

(It's about 1/5" tall, with a slightly shaggy top, nothing of note under
the
soil - that's the soil it came from on top of the packet)

Maybe this one?

His book is a revelation. I don't think I had appreciated how many forms
of mushroom/fungi there were. The photography is wonderful. Even with
the book in my hand I wouldn't dare to positively identify something in the
wild. Even so, the book is well worth having.
