brendan.furneaux posted about them for me yesterday. They are poisonous and somewhat psychoactive. In fact, I spotted deers in the same area yesterday morning (I posted the picture). Maybe they ate them and became psychoactive???
That's interesting. Though they are technically poisonous, a healthy adult male would not die from consuming small amounts of them ( I am not speaking from experience, I had just read a lot about them). If you're interested in learning more there is a fantastic book called Toads and Toadstools by Adrian Morgan I would highly recommend. http://www.amazon.com/Toads-Toadstools-M...
By the way, I found this where I found Fly Agaric mushrooms yesterday morning (I learned that they are poisonous). But, they were all gone by this morning. I hope some aminal(s) ate them.
You're on the right path, it is a fungi. Looks a type of coral fungi. It resembles white coral fungus but I'm not sure. The wiki pic doesn't look like it but others in google images do. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clavulina_c...

no it is not the same.
That could be a possibility. The common name of your spotting here is white coral fungus.
