Privates! We have reports of an unidentified flying object

Coprinus, it means "of poop" because a lot of them grow on dung, though this one usually prefers well-fertilized soil (which may or may not have manure in it).

The big one looks like a shaggy mane to me but not the little ones... Either it's not a shaggy mane or two different mushrooms are growing in the same spot which is weird, no?

Usually little shaggy manes look like little big shaggy manes, just not as shaggy, not tan in colour like that. Unless there are regional differences?

I suspect that it's two different mushrooms. You could keep an eye on it to see if one dissolves into a puddle of ominous black goo and the other doesn't to confirm.
