I was unable to identify this pretty red mushroom, but it's probably a Russula.

I saw some cool mushrooms today. Largish, round, very clean and perfect white, growing in an arc. I don't think they were puffballs because they didn;t have that papery, dirty look those have (although maybe they look nice and plump and shiny white when they are newer?). These were is a piece of scrubby grass beside a pathway in the middle of London town.

Yeah, new puffballs are nice and plump and shiny white. :)

Could have been other mushroom-shaped mushrooms that hadn't fully opened yet, too.
