On September 28, 2025 Rebecca Hallgarth and Jan Haley discovered a very small mushroom growing in the right-of-way along NM-152 in Hillsboro. Two photographs by Rebecca Hallgarth are shown here. A bit of research, here at the BR website, indicates that it may be a coprinoid mushroom, perhaps Coprinopsis lagopus. Mushroom identification can be tricky for many reasons, the discussion at the link is quite good.
