Everything in the garden is rotting

Mrs K reported a sudden occurence around the compost heap - a couple of dozen large fungi (no names, but they're not hard to identify!). I picked a few, and discarded all but the one that was free of worms - very tasty it was too.
Looking around the garden, it seems that fungi are shooting up all around - a host on the so-called lawn that has been a dust-bowl for the past few months, and more in the borders and on the roadside.
The drive to work was 'top-down' with relish, as it may be the last this year.
"Nevermore" (OK, it's a crow, not a raven)

The first picture reminds me of 'over easy eggs' very attractive looking.but they wouldn't even be an appetizer for me.
The spruce grouse is a game bird and manydo end up in stew pots of hunters. I much prefer camera hunting. thank you for your comments.
