Spotted these growing in the garden this morning.
Here's the first picture. They are starting to form a ring - you can clearly see two sides, and some small ones in the bottom right.

Do you think this is the start of a fairy ring?
Here are some more pictures. I'd be inclined to say they are, the only thing that's not tying in is that fairy ring mushrooms have a bump on the top middle, but these have a dip. But they are small, so I wondered if they aren't fully grown yet (the lawn is subject to getting mown so don't get much of a chance to grow.

If anyone can confirm what this is I'd be most grateful.
Cheers.

Give it a sniff. Fairy Rings contain cyanide (thats why they have to be cooked) it should smell faintly of almonds.
