First waxcap of the season - Spangle Waxcap

I'm determined to get a full list of waxcap species this year for our site. Having just found the first one I have identified it as Spangle Waxcap (Hygrocybe insipida). I find some waxcaps difficult to id but given the slimy cap and stem and the decurrent gills I am happy with this one.
