| | | Re: Unidentified Fungi Hi
the first one is a Hygrocybe sp. Could Be Hygrocybe insipida - Spangled Waxcap.
The second (without seeing the stem or gills) could be Kuehneromyces mutabilis - Sheathed Woodtuft which grows on decayed wood of deciduous trees and has a two-tone umbonate cap. Or, it could be Galerina marginata - Funeral Bell.
Just a suggestion - not an i.d. I'm a beginner at this.

The largish pale specimens are more likely to be dried out Hygrocybe coccinea, but by the time they reach that stage they are not really identifiable. Quote:

Or, it could be Galerina marginata - Funeral Bell. | I think the former is more likely but, as you say, without sight of the stem and gills it is hard to be certain.
