Wierd & Wonderful Fungi

 Out in the garden this morning I noticed these toadstools growing, I haven't seen anything like these before, has anyone got a clue as to what kind they are? They are around 8 inch and at first glance look like an asparagus stem though on closer inspection they are defininately some sort of fungi.The caps have small scales and when touched they puff out a cloud of dust/spores?

I have had a quick search online but can't seem to see any like them so If anyone out there knows what kind of fungi these are please let me know.
