When inexerienced, its always quite dificult unless you see a fully emerged specimen!

Ken,
Yes, there will scaling on the top when they are more mature, the species looks more likely to be
A. gallica and not
A. mellea but much the same except generally more robust its a Honey Fungus never the less.
