Black Mulch Mushrooms. Please Don't Let Me Die :) Fixed photos.

So I have some really fertile black mulch down the road that grows mushrooms like crazy. I found these weird guys growing there and I'm not sure what they are. I live in Massachusetts. I'm wondering if they could have came from another state. There are all kinds of weird mushrooms growing there.Sorry about the awful photos. A cop stopped me as I was taking photos. Luckily I had an intelligent cop that knew what mycology was. I just told him I had never seen this particular fungi before and I wanted to take pictures so I could go home and find out what it was.Then I said sorry I'm a girl with weird hobbies and swallowed my pride and did that stupid girly laugh that some guys like. He said that's ok smiled and drove off. Phew. I feel dirty now and not in a sexy way.
I went back just now and collected some. I couldn't find where the little bunch again so I couldn't get the bottom. I got them home and I don't think they are the fun kind. Nothing has tried to eat them so they will most likely give me gastrointestinal poisoning or kill me. But maybe I got lucky. The mulch could have come from anywhere. Either way they smell nice and are really cool. I think they might all be the same mushroom in different life stages.

Your links don't work. Maybe try uploading them to this website and using the bbcode here, it is also easier to browse them that way and increases your chances of getting some attention. Also best to include a description per the form. Tempted to guess your "different stages" are deliquescence but we'll see.

I fixed them. Thanks. I finally figured out how to download the site. I was wondering can spores travel from other states inside mulch products? This mulch seems to have all kinds of weird stuff growing in it because it's always wet from the sprinklers. It's weird though it's jut this tiny patch out of all the mulch by the sidewalk that grows stuff. I've seen at least 6 different seprate types of fungi and have only been able to identify one.I found some coprinopsis cinereain growing in it in abundance which was pretty neat. I thought they were inky caps at first. I have also posted a new mushroom I need identfied and have done much better job describing and photographing it since I didn't toss it like the other ones because they looked promising and have left it to dry just in case.

You mean I threw a perfectly good choice edible away. Awwwe dang those would have made a wicked meal. Better safe than sorry. Guess I'll wait for them to grow more since they seem to like it there. Thanks!
