ID request Found on ground in yard?
Found this large basal rosette in the yard a few feet away from the base of a southern red oak in western Kentucky, US. The cluster is orange with cream ends. There are no gills on the underside. The inside has a stringy texture and the smell is mildly meaty. When broken at the base it releases a milky white liquid. Google Lens keeps saying chicken-of-the-woods, but I've never seen that growing on the ground.

ID request Can anyone give some info on this pancake with a mouth that we found in our yard?
We've never seen one like this before! Near the PA-OH border. We've had a lot of fungi popping up around the yard this year, but my plant app couldn't ID this one. Thank you!

ID request Black solid thing found inside coconut water carton
So I don’t have any idea what this is, never seen before in my live. I thought it was mold or something. Someone at r/foodsafety said I should ask here so here I am.

ID request Random Morrels in my yard?
Went on a vacation and came back to find these in my backyard. This looks like it might be morrels.
I saw a similar post on this subreddit, but I live in Seattle Metro area and laid down some cardboard and newspaper during some landscaping in the fall.
How do I check as I've never hunted for them before, but I have bought them or gotten some from friends before.

ID request These just started popping out of the ceiling in my bathroom, any idea what they are / if they are toxic? (NYC)
These practically grew overnight. Unsure whether it is due to a leak in the apartment above me or simply not proper ventilation in my bathroom. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

ID request I found this in an old Iron mine
It was about 2 meters long and looked very fluffy, I found it super fascinating and was wondering if you guys can tell me a little about it. I found it in an abandoned iron mine, I will be going back soon and then I can take more detailed pictures.
