Snapped a pic of this cutie awhile ago. Beautiful.

    Imo, at least the muscarias here in Finland are usually in season late in the year, but that’s not my main point. The colour can get that pale, but imo usually only on shrooms a bit older and already turning the cap upwards a bit.

    I won’t say what it is, but I think it’s rather pale for muscaria, but there’s quite a few thousand kilometres between us so.

      In North America there is a variant of muscaria found called guesowii, that is known colloquially as the American Yellow Fly Agaric. Also, muscaria can come into season in late summer in that region, whereas in Europe we do not see them until autumn is in full swing at least. If this was found early summer I would consider a different amanita ID to a muscaria as possibly a bit too early :)
