WOW Your shots are beautiful.

You must have been laying on your tummy to take these. See the faieries sitting on the toadstools?
Yes me too Marilyn. But they are intriguing, could write a childrens story around them.

I think the bottom one is called Death Angels (Amanita virosa) I'm not sure about the top one. Looks like something already took a bite out of the bottom one
A little info about mushrooms here in North Carolina. Taken from here:
http://www.ces.ncsu.edu/depts/pp/notes/General_Principles/gpin004/gpin004.htm
Due to the wide variety of climates, soils and plant communities, North Carolina has within its boundaries one of the greatest diversity of species of mushrooms and related fungi of any state in the U.S. Mushrooms are found in lawns, pastures, forests, mulch of all types, on stumps, living trees and in such unusual locations as basements, plaster board walls and flower pots in houses and shopping centers. Most mushrooms occur from Spring to Fall after rains; although they may be found all year if temperature and moisture are not limiting.
Although some 98% of all mushrooms are not poisonous and only about 1% of the inquiries involve dangerous species, the common appearance of mushrooms in lawns and landscapes after significant rain can pose a potential hazard if eaten, without verification of edibility.
