Spotting

Description:

These Fungi were growing in my yard near Otterville, Il.

Notes:

I wonder if it's unusal for so many different types to be in the same yard near each other?

Hi. You have at least four species here. Spottings should be for a single species only so you could split this into at least four separate spottings. The last one looks like a coprinellus, the second one could be a laccaria, the flat fans could be stereum the third one might be a russula ... to get more accurate ID's you should always take shots of the fertile surfaces (usually the undersides) and any stipe (stems)
