I found these while walking through woodland looking for a suitable field for liberty caps:
Mushroom 1:



Mushrooms 2: (Found next to an uprooted tree)



Mushroom 3: (These things were HUGE! Found growing out of the bark of a living tree... At least 2 of them had bigger caps than a dinner plate)
Here was the group at the base

Trying to give an ideas of the size with a pack of cigarettes

And heres me holding one of the smaller ones from further up the tree

Mushroom 4: (Could these possibly be Oysters or some other sort of edible? They were growing on a fallen tree)



Well thats all, i did find a few puff balls as well but by that point i was fed up because of 6 hours of hunting for liberty caps lol.

Hey, I think this may be active! ID's lead to believe its a Cocarinus McDonaldus

I agree with Alan.
The polypore looks like Dryads Saddle to me (Polyporus squamosus)

I think that "cup" fungus may be active. Contains caffeine, but you need to ingest quite a bit to hallucinate...

Agreed with the polypore squamosus. I've found them all over ohio when hunting for bluefoots. Very common there.

Yes, and yes.
Make sure the spore print is white before you eat them, even though on your specimens I can see that it will be. Don't want you eating something weird out of the Cortinariaceae like Crepidotus.
