Description A pair of big mushrooms forming cups which look indeed like natural calices.
This sort forms bigs circles, especially under beech trees. These two stood somewhat alone.
With thanks to Marc who fortunately helped again in giving me the name: Clitocybe nebularis (Clouded Funnel, Dutch: Nevelzwam, German: Nebelgrauer Trichterling, Nebelkappe).

Taken in the forest near Hilversum/The Netherlands.
