I found these in a park in Westminster. They look like young Shaggy Manes, but they seem a little different that what I usually find later in the season. Any thoughts?

They look more like the shaggy parasol. Lepiota rachodes. Check that spores are white.

Green spored Lepiota is a poisonous look alike.
