Mushrooms

Because of how dehydrated these are I am reluctant to agree that it is for sure a honey mushroom (Armillaria mellea). It doesn't look like any honey mushroom I've seen in the woods, though it bears certain resemblances, namely the annulus and the habit (growing from a tree root). It could well be a honey mushroom, I just don't usually see them that dry looking. And usually in much bigger clusters around Oak trees where I live. I just personally don't feel sure enough to say it would be safe to collect and eat and to me they are certainly not anything to write home about anyway. I prefer when they interact with entalomas to create the aborted entaloma.
