some coral fungi and turkey tail?

It is difficult to tell, and please don't take my word for this because I'm a hobbyist, but I pretty sure they will not bite and it's safe to get closer.

I’ve never seen chanterelles that yellow or growing out of a dead tree, but maybe there’s a different kind in Chicago
