Well I went back there multiple times, but could not find them again.  It seems like they have only a very short life, or maybe the property is just to big to find these little ones again.

Ah sad. I'd imagine they have a short life. I'm a big fan of mushrooms. Too many times I have tried to go back with a camera a few days later and the interesting mushrooms I had seen before were all dying.

It seems that these only last a few days.  We have others, much bigger ones that last several weeks.

I'm observing some at home again that last several weeks.  They grow to about 6 to 8 inches across.  Some baby ones from earlier this year: Mushroom 2

Sorry again for another slow reply.

Thanks for the link! A bunch like this came up in my neighborhood but they were gone the next day. I didn't even get a chance to take pictures.

You're welcome Priscilla!

Yes amazing how short lived some of these mushrooms are.

One day I'd like to try sculpting them out of polymer clay. I know someone who makes jewelry that sometimes involves tiny mushrooms and they look so real. I saw someone selling blown glass mushrooms that looked realistic, too, but I don't know anything about blowing glass. haha

Well I don't even know anything about sculpting...  I only ever managed to make cups and vases in school when we were doing stuff like that.

Ah yes. The slab or coil method, right? Unless you made them on a wheel. I have done both before but that was many years ago.

I wouldn't remember, it's some 40 years ago.  Not old enough yet to remember things that happened during my school years...  But my short term memory has started to slip a bit.

Thank you Anastasya.  The grass was there by accident, but I thought it made for a good size comparison
