Don't you love wild mushrooms? So amazing to learn about what is abundant and all around us in the PNW (Pacific northwest). It is important to learn what they are before you pick. Some you may not even want to touch. But some varieties are easily identified and delicious. You have to know whay you are picking because some can kill. Some you might just want to take pictures and if you do learn what you can harvest you'd better know how in order to leave a small amount of stem back so they will come back next year. Peace and happy hunting

wow those mushrooms look wonderful.

[-]talewyn - Thanks for the comment, they smell good but are no good to eat, (These I believe are abundant yet Not Edible). These mushrooms are what I believe are Sulfur tuft (Hypholoma fasciculare): Poisonous. This clumping mushroom is bitter tasting and can cause vomiting, diarrhea, and convulsions. Many things in nature can fool you and you have to be careful Its good to get experience on mushrooms that are easily safe and not until one become experienced should you venture to others. (Safety and knowledge is key). Peace
