ID Request, growing from a stump (pics)

There's something wrong (or right :P) with me... when I drive, my eyes are constantly drawn to stumps and rotting wood, looking for mushrooms. Here's some I spotted today as I was driving by. I didn't pick them, if they're good I'll go pick them later.
Location: Central Utah Spore print: N/A Habitat: Stump surrounded by grass, all mushrooms growing from portions of the stump covered with soil. Cap: See pics
I didn't pick these (yet), so I don't have a lot of detailed pics of the undersides of the caps.
The stump:

I'll group the pics relative to the above pic of the stump: "bottom", "left", "right" and "behind"
Bottom:

Left:
 
Right (slightly behind):
   More behind (I picked one of these to give a better view):

Thanks for the replies. I'm assuming that the honey mushroom is the one in the last two pics? Are honey mushrooms good to eat?
Can anybody ID the others?

There are two kinds of mushrooms growing on the stump, there may be three, the first four pictures are of oyster mushrooms. The last two pictures would seem to be honey mushrooms. The 5th, 6th and 7th picture don't look like they are either honeys or oyster mushrooms.

Yes Honey mushrooms are edible, I'm not too sure about what types or species. As far as I know they need to be heavily cooked or they could be posionos.
Make sure you get ID-ed 100% before consumption.
Enjoy.

Some of those shrooms might not be honeys. (the behind pics) i dont see a white spore deposit present anywhere. i do see orange on the gills and caps though and that would indicate closer to gymnopilus.
I would like to see some better pictures. a spore print will help too.
I could be wrong but the possibility shouldnt be removed.
