The afternoon rains that occur from the heating of the day, have prompted a bumper crop of these King Bolete mushrooms in my yard. King Bolete are edible according to my Smithsonian field guide and are supposed to have a pleasant smell and a nutty taste.

In the second image, a parasite of the bolete is Sepedonium chryospermum (inset upper left also), a filamentous white mold which will later become powdery and golden yellow due to the asexual spores.
