Corvus

Looks like a species of Hebeloma to me. Note how the upper stalk is coated in very small shiny flakes.

I think that learning the basics of wild mushroom identification begins with having two or three good (current) field guides, for starters. But, getting into subtle distinctions like IDing a Hebeloma mushroom to species will likely push one's abilities beyond what may be obtained from field guides. However --provided that one reads/understands French or is willing to use Google translate-- then "Champignons du Quebec noms Latin" is an excellent source where a quite comprehensive list of NA species is available. (There's quite a bit if technical vocabulary to learn which occasionally makes translating confusing.) Note here how there are 20 species of Hebeloma documented on the "H" page.   https://www.mycoquebec.org/bas.php?l=l&trie=H
