Most, if not all, of the mushrooms in your photo are Verpa bohemica, NOT morels
Yep, them be Verpa's. Be sure to par-boil them before eating, and don't eat too many or you'll load your bloodstream with rocket fuel.

Wow I didn't even catch that before, you can see the white fuzziness in just about every stem.. Hopefully he didn't eat them already.

you won't load your blood with rocket fuel, you just have to cook them thoroughly enough to get whatever chemical (name not important) out of the morel. and it isn't rocket fuel, it's an ingredient found in rocket fuel

dont eat them at all. theyre not that good to eat and MMH in them builds up in your liver. not worth it.

Do they even contain MMH? I found one recently (Verpa conica) and upon researching it after reading that they are edible in mushroom demystified, I couldn't find anything mentioning it. Only that some people are made sick by them (What I read made it seem like Verpa bohemica sickens more, but I have no idea how true that is).
Either way, my specimen went buggy before I got to try it.
