that middle one looks a hella lot like amanita muscaria but from the pic it seems to be lacking the bulbus base to it and the veil rings around the stem...dono tho don't take my word. don't eat it tho cuz probably most likely a deadly look alike tho i don't know of any that have the reminants on the cap like a. muscaria do. but still don't eat it im just giving my 2 cents worth  yea but still cool finds. maybe a mod or someone with more experience will come along and flame my info im give you donno.  later man nice finds -SenselessRebel

yea dude dig that shit out. put a stick in the ground and bring up some dirt with it to get the whole thing up includeing thevery bottom. basicly dig up more then the mushroom and pull the dirt away from it so i can see the base and take more pics do you have any books on mushrooms???

Can you get some up-close photos of these mushrooms after you dig them out- make sure to include a photo of the gills of each mushroom. Then, remove the cap from the stem and lay the cap gills down onto a white piece of paper and leave it there as long as you can (12hrs atleast is my recommendation). Let us know what the colour of the spore deposits are- if it appears one of the mushrooms did not leave any spores, wipe the area the cap had been resting with your finger to see if any white dust rubs off.
Give us some ID info- RandomHero linked you to the instructions.

donno, i honestly don't htink its a amanita muscaria. it doesn't look right. the base doens't really seem to be bulbus enough nor doe sit really ahve the scaly volva like muscaria has. still a little hard to tell. also the warts are all on top of the cap it looks like from that second pic. are the warts yellowish?? gray??? white??? carefull man these mushrooms probably tread on dangerous grounds but yea hit back with the color of the wars cuz it may be a a.rubescens but once again im still kinda a nooob my self. any one up here have anything to day against what im saying??? later -SenselessRebel

Hmm.... well, the stipe has a rather yellow hue to it... And the veils are absent from your specimens. It is certainly not A. rubescens. These are red, A. rubescens are not. Could be something else, but it looks a sharp ringer for A. muscaria.

randomhero if i found a muscaria like that one in that pic, that godzilla muscaria i would probably shit my self  haha
cure, donno from what i read thos seem to be more yellow to yellow orange and have yellower warts on em. (my info comes from mushrooms demystified) donno
dtree says that the warts are whiteish gray. dtree go ask someone like a friend who knows nothing bout mushrooms and ask him bout the colors of your stuff cuz anyinfo could make your eyes bias to one color or to another depending on what you wanna find!! so just to be safe ask your friends who know nothing what color the spores look on black/white paper and what color they say the caps are and what color they say the warts are. also make sure your looking at em under a good white light none of that shitty yellowish desktop lamp light shit.
i'll be right back. i just gotta sort out some mushrooms i just found and get a big bucket of water to drink but i thinkim going to use my dicot. key and see what it says about your mushroom -SenselessRebel

Did you click on the link and peek at the photos? I believe based on these photos and others of A. flavoconia, that the cap colour is variable from yellow-orange usually, but also reddish on occasion. The yellow stipe is fitting of A. flavoconia.

It's not Amanita muscaria. The stem is too yellow, and it doesn't have the concentric rings of volval remnants around the base. Toss it!!
Edit: oops, didn't realize there were two pages to this post when i replied
