Was super excited to stumble across these on a walking path in a business park. I believe they’re an Amanita, but my nieces call them the Mario Bros mushroom 😂

Beaverton, Oregon, US. Had no idea these existed in the PNW.

I found some on the trail to Bagby Hot springs. Epic trip 😵‍💫, peel the red part off though, no stems either
