funny thing here is these were all found in the same yard. First one is the only one I picked so only one I realy need an id on the rest are just cool as shit.
These were right next to a big tree, sorry didnt note what type of tree. All orage, orange gills and so far what looks like orage print. dont take the print to fact though it was only on my napkin.
#1
These were the purple ones I found they look just like the red ones maybe just turned purple somehow?
#2
these are the red ones the small ones looked like cherrys, where as the large ones were red in the middle with a white ring around the edges.
#3
These I found on my trip back to take pics of the others. There were in very old mulch around the base of a large tree. The stem was almost as thick as the cap. Most noteable thing about these is that when I picked one to get a pic of the underside, at first it was a spunge insted of gills but there appears to be nothing at all under it??? Maybe this was simply because I picked a young one? idk

Danny called it.
Omphalotus olearius, also called Omphalotus illudens, the Jack O' Lantern mushroom--poisonous.
Take it into a closet with the lights out and close your eyes for about 3 minutes. Then look closely at it, it will be glowing in the dark.
The print will be white to pale yellow.

I was also thinking they were jacks due to the decurrent gills, "they are running way down the stipe".... If I remember they have white spore prints, it's been awhile?

Easy enough to check, Shady7. It's dark now and I assume you have a closet. Test it and tell us what it's like.
