I've got a Collins gem book on Trees but im looking for something a bit more concise for the house. I really like the way thistree id website works:

Hey Nagual,
I see your from Ayrshire - I'm from Ayr here. If you ever fancy going on a shroom hunt give me a shout! I'm a newbie to identifying them also. Best place I have found so far was Loch Trool. Was heaving with mushrooms last year, most of which I failed to identify! I did find a lovely...

**edit** I've removed the pic as it was from the website above and I think I may have to get permission to show it here. Better safe than sorry!
I love trying to ID mushrooms but it's so frustrating for a beginner! Great pics and info but I still have no idea what it is. You all probably know about it but this is a good ID website: http://www.rogersmushrooms.com
