Fungus in the field...

Most of our fungi grow under the trees in our yard. But this one is growing yards away from any tree, out in the open field. Liked the shape.

Lovely closeup

Reminds me of a golf ball on a tee. (Too many hours on and near the golf course on Friday.)

[Casablanca]

@randystreat Me too and I don't even play golf!

[Kathy]

@casablanca Actually I don't either. I took photos Friday at a Golf Tournament.

Fungi can be rather fascinating....I never know whether they are a poisonous variety or not...don’t think I would risk this one but it’s a lovely shape!

Looks about ready to bust apart

Looks tall.

[Carol McClelland]

I love the title you gave to this picture!

[Melvina McCaw]

Nice one!

[Milanie]

Like a golf ball stuck up high on a tee - I'd like to take a whack at it :)

Nice shot

[Pat]

Super shot! I love a lone shroom, fav.

[Jon Lip]

Nice shot. Have you identified it yet? I have this site that may help you if so inclined. It is a UK site, so maybe they are different.

@craftymeg Thanks, Margaret.

[GaryW]

@randystreat Ha! It does look like one.

[GaryW]

@happypat Thanks! I barely eat mushrooms from the grocery, so I would never eat one right from the ground. :- )

[GaryW]

@k9photo Actually, it spreads out and becomes a huge top.

[GaryW]

@kvphoto About 3 inches.

[GaryW]

@carolmactx :- ) Thanks!

[GaryW]

@bubblequeen Thanks so much, Melvina.

[GaryW]

@bkbinthecity Thank you!

[GaryW]

@pattyblue Thank you, Pat. There are several.

[GaryW]

@jon_lip Thank you, Jon! That is a wonderful site! This one looks like a couple of them, but interestingly, most like the "Field mushroom".
