The first pic looks very interesting, like the unnamed Psilocybe in section Stuntzii that Inski finds. 

If it is that, you would be the second person in the world to collect it.

Some better pics are needed to be sure they are not toxic. 

What is the spore print color?  Any blue staining where the stems are broken?

The second pic are mycena and conocybe, nothing worth eating.

I think you got really really lucky with that first one.  But the pic is blurry, could be deadly, more are needed!

If it's the same kind as cleen's, they must be spreading out...

Hey if they are, it looks like yours are sporulating nicely (going by the colour of the ring), whereas his were hard to get spores from. Might want to clone them or take a few spore prints while you can.

Take them out of the sealed bag, fresh mushrooms don't like that.

It would be great to see some photos of them in their habitat!  Use a digital camera and turn on the macro mode (little flower icon).

Put them in a paper bag and place them in the fridge until you can get descent pics and print them right away.

Most of those look good but the one on the lower left is a deadly Galerina.  The four on the lower right are also highly suspect.

Don't eat any that have rusty orange gills!

And be careful not to get a stem from the deadly ones in with the good ones.

Do you mean I shouldn't have the stem of the deadly ones in the same bag as the other ones?

Yea its best to keep them separate in case they break apart and then you have to decide which stem goes with which cap and you can't afford to make a single mistake.

You should be able to tell by the blue bruising, but sometimes the blue from a good one will rub off on the stem of the deadly one, that would be a bummer.  Or sometimes the deadly ones turn kind of black as they rot and it looks like blue if you want it to be blue badly enough.

Yeah be careful with which mushrooms you keep. Make sure they all have the same spore print colour and all bruise blue.

Ok,

I have tried doing spore prints of the mushrooms I have found but have been unsuccessful.

I have kept them in plastic zip-lock bags for about 2days tho.

What is best to keep them in when you find them?

A paper bag would be prferable. If you find more, spore print them immediately. Try to get some habitat shot too and make sure that they are all the same mushroom. Spore printing is a key way of IDing mushrooms and ensuring that you have the same kind.

Be careful aerosol, before your dry them all until they're unrecognisable, chuck out the deadly and suspect ones. If you haven't already

Always sort through them and print them as soon as you get them home. It can be time consuming but it will save you from having to toss them all or getting sick.
