Last one is a very young Trametes sp. not sure which but probably T. versicolour

Happyhare is correct on the Birch Polypore


The first one looks like Tramella mesenterica - Yellow Brain Fungus

Ok Jean, there are a lot of fungi fruiting at the moment that normally show in Autumn. the warm start then a cold wet spell ( as if it was summer then moved into autumn) is what triggers them to fruit. We are eating the giant Agaricus macrosporus at the moment which normally shows in September :grin: So it is very difficult to say what yours might be :lol2:
