The first looks like a morel, maybe the "half-free morel". I don't think it's a Gyromitra. If you can confirm that it's a morel with a local person in the know, you may have some tasty treats growing there! The second is Coprinus, one of the "inky caps", named for the way the caps deliquesce into black goo.

Hard to tell about the stump, but it may be either some kind of oyster mushroom (Pleurotus or relatives), or one of the shelf/bracket polypores like "turkey tail"

Hope that helps,

Thank you Vincent! Youve been a big help.
I gave false info on that first mushroom. The pic of it on my camera was much brigher than it loaded on the computer. That first mushroom DOES NOT have craters. It has RIDGES. The protruding ridges have black on the ends. I did some research on it and im really not sure if its a Morchella elata or a Verpa (false morel).
You are right about the second being an 'Inky Cap'. I looked it up and I think its a Coprinus micaceus.
The scaly stump grower- I believe it is a Turkey Tail, Trametes versicolor. It is SO awesome!
Thanks again!

First picture is not a Verpa. Verpa stems connect to the cap inside at the very top of the stem. Morel caps are attached to the stem at the base of the cap and the whole musroom is hollow (ie: if you picked it at ground level and looked inside the stem and the cap are hollow, you could put it on your finger like the finger of a glove.) There are other false morels like 'brain mushrooms' that look similar but usually have a more rounded bulbous cap.
Good book for you would be David Arora's 'all that the rain promises, and more'.

You have two excellent mycological societies (mushroom clubs) near you if you are in Western Washington, Snohomish County Mycological Society and Seattle Myc. Society.
The first picture is definitely a morel, I'd have to drag my book out to tell you which species.

These clubs are having their fall shows any time now. Check their websites and go if you can.
