Another beautiful day out in the back;
First we have:
Habitat: In grass, near birch and ash, maybe beech.
Cap; looks like sugar wafer. Brown in center, fades to tan on rim.
Gills; didn't look, maybe white >_>
Stem; white with brown/tan bumps
A bunch;
Habitat; dense dead wood all around, in a corner between two dead logs. Perfect dark soil. Under small bush.
Caps; Brown/tan center~ white rim.
Stem; White
Looked like the one on the Left about 5+ days ago:
Next is;
Habitat; mossy, marshy grass
Cap; Amazing green fading out to white on the rim. Spider-web'sh crackling design throughout.
Gills; Not sure, think white as well
Stem; White, spongy me-thinks.
Next one;
Habitat; leaf litter near dead tree
Cap; brown fading out to white in a shaggy/dripping manner.
Stem; white, thicker at base - not sure if firm or spongy.
Gills; didn't check.
Next (little fuzzy);
Habitat; leaf-litter next to dead log.
Cap; tan throughout
Stem; white with a little dress of brown that hangs down midway.
Another one (which may be same as above and first one?);
Habitat; growing on dead log under leaves.
Cap; rippled tan cap
Stem; tan descending into white (under leaves)
Another random one~

Number 1 looks to be a Leccinium. Number 4 is Chlorophyllum molybdites, a beautiful and poisonous mushroom. The other ones all look to be in the vague sort of categories that I ignore.

1) Leccinum sp., an edible one judging by the color of the cap.
2) Pholiota sp.
3) Need to see the gills and a spore print
4) I have no idea what it is but xmush says its Chlorophyllum molybdites
5 - 6) Need spore print color and a pic of the gills
7) Maybe a slime mold

Number 4 could be something else, I'm not sure that I've seen a green gills crack on the cap like that, but I've definitely seen other Lepiota species do so. Would be helpful to see the gills.

Definitely a Lepiota type thing but the cap looks off for C. molybdites.

#1 is most likely leccinum scabrum, judging by the birch tree in the background.

Found many of these in a long line (along trail) swimming in moss/grass (in shade).
Cap 2-2.5 inch - saw some young ones which had dark brown and the older ones are like the pictures above.
Gills; white - will print to see spores in morning.
Stem; weak, spongy, 1.5-3 inch on some
These come up out of the moss as brown puffs, then do the usual mushroom thing.
Thank you guys so much by the way. I've learned more this week on native mushrooms in my area than in my whole life =O
When taking mushrooms, is there a way to insure that spores can be left behind (I just kind of tap it)?

Also #2 was;
4-6 days ago. Not quite sure it's Pholiota compared to the pictures I see online, but mushrooms are so varied I might be mistaken.

I asked Else Vellinga about this one and she said that its definitely a Russula.

I always call those Russula virescens because it is so common around here. I didn't know R. parvovirescens existed. Thanks for the link!

Amanitas kill more people than all other mushrooms put together, so an ID of some to be eaten must be correct. An ID based on a photo on the Internets is not reliable enough to potentially risk your life on. ToxicMan
