Southern California ID??
    #5134616 -

Hello, These grow in the Santa Monica Mountains in So Cal.

They grow on the ground in fallen oak leaves just after a heavy rain.

Spore print is white - the photo is off.

The flesh does not change color when sliced/bruised.

Gills are attached to stem.

The whole mushroom has a yellow/orange tint to it.

I think its an oyster but I want to be very sure as I intend to eat them if so.

Given that the gills aren't decurrent and the spore print isn't white, I would have to say it isn't an oyster mushroom.

I think my eyes are getting better. Instead of a big dark blur I see a big light blur.

The spore print is pure white - ignore the color of the photo as it is slightly off.

Any ideas of what it is then?

The prominent stem, lack of decurrent gills, and terrestrial habitat rule out Oyster Mushroom (Pleurotus).

Many mushroom genera drop white spores. I don't know what your mushroom is but I'm sure it is not an oyster. I'm wanting to say Hygrophorus, but I wouldn't bet more than 50/50 on that.

That looks like a Tricholoma. There are several yellow species of Tricholoma, some of them inedible (possibly poisonous).

Happy mushrooming!
