Obligatory reminder to not eat things you harvest yourself unless you're 100% positive on ID. Join your local society if you want to learn!

Harvest all of the golden oyster mushrooms you find, they are invasive, and tasty.

Are the top ones golden oysters?

The bottom ones look like chantrelles to me

I was thinking the bottom ones, but upon a quick search I think you may be right. They are surprisingly similarly colored.

A sweet find either way! Both are quite tasty

Chantrelles grow on soil, oysters grow on rotting wood, but sometimes oysters growing shallowly-buried roots can appear to be sprouting from the soil

Yeah, top two photos are oysters, and the bottom two are chants.

Based on the time of year and their appearance, I think the oysters were a native oyster variety, but your point still stands in the general case :).

DON'T TOUCH THOSE! Those are Burmese Spider Mushrooms, they are extremely lethal, and hallucinogenic, if you eat them you will dance yourself to death, I lost my family to these and I am just completely full of shit they look delicious.
