Many Pinkgills - no Waxcaps (yet)

A strange grassland fungi season has started with (I think) five species of Pinkgills here and no Waxcaps yet. I am unable to check spores at the moment so id is difficult but I am confident I have found Entoloma ameides known as the Scented or Bubblegum Pinkgill. The smell was fruity/chemical and strong and I had alteady reached a conclusion before checking the eDNA survey done two years ago. There indeed was E. amiedes so that's a wrap. I found it in both the East and West field.
