SF North Bay Request

Hi all,
This is my first post here. I've been living in the SF Bay for about 4 years now, I came over from England. I had my first ever 'experience' with mushrooms about a year ago. I was blown away. Anyway to cut a long story short, I'd love to educate myself to a position where I am comfortable in picking mushrooms, and eating them!
I went for a walk out the back of the house the other day with the girlfriend and took some snap shots and some samples of mushrooms I saw growing. Since then I've read about spore samples etc. So I'm not really after and firm identifications because, well I don't think I can supply enough info atm. But if any thing looks like it might be of interest Id love to know. The tall ones with the thin white stalks might be good?! I'm presuming the bright yellow/orange ones would most likely kill me

The first looks like a Panaeolus, probably papilionaceus, maybe campanulatus.. 2 looks like a Hygrophorus. Maybe Roseibrunneus? hard to say. Check for waxy thick white gills.

Your first pic may be a psathyrella sp. your 2nd pic may be a hebelomo sp. And your 3rd pic is hygrocybe conicus.

Its Hygrocybe, maybe H. punicea or coccinea or miniata, can't see it very well.

Its a Psathyrella.

Hard to tell from that pic. Maybe Hebeloma.

Or maybe Hygrocybe singeri. OP please check how slimy the stem is, that feature is taxonomically significant in Hygrocybe!
