Thanks again Machi. I'll look at it.

In the first photo I didn't notice the cedar (?) leaves, and only originally saw the oak leaf. I think Hypholoma capnoides could be another option.

I agree with Machi. Smooth cap and no stem ring or remnants of a stem ring suggest a different species.

Smooth cap is a good indication that a mushroom you have found is not Armillaria mellea
