You should read this post at the top of the forum to help you give a better description. I'll take a guess on what they are, but you should go ahead and try writing a description anyway, to help us confirm the ID. Also, writing a description helps you to know what things you should observe for identification.
Based on the photo I would guess that you've got some old, rotten Honey Mushrooms (Armillaria mellea). If they are then they should have a white spore print.
Honey Mushrooms are edible when young and fresh, but those aren't. I hope you weren't thinking of eating them. Eating those will probably get you an evening in the emergency room.
Happy mushrooming!

Wow, that's a really nice picture. I love how such beauty can be created by the combination of nature, decay and, chaos. Thank you, Earth, for creating such a kodak moment. Thank you, tropez1942, for sharing this image. And thank you, Paxil, for making me insane.
