Bolbitius titubans very delicate and fleeting - I saw a large grouping of them at around 9am in the morning - they are so airy and fragile that I was only able photograph the smallest stockiest specimen - the mature parasol shaped ones were swaying in the breeze. In a few short hours (about 1pm) I passed this same spot and they were all gone, shriveled into absolutely nothing by the sun.
