Look at the size of this beauty that I came across today.

Hello Roy's

 

Your first example is one of the larger puffballs.

 

Either Calvatia or Bovista type species, a clearer shot of the surface would help pin it down.

 

Second one is the stink horn, Phallus impudicus.

Thanks David, need to start reading reading this thread and try and learn some fungi, all very interesting.

I have posted a lot of images here: https://arboriculture.wordpress.com/2016/10/18/an-assortment-of-fungal-finds/

 

Hopefully my IDs are on point. Many others I saw I didn't upload, and some I really don't know what I am looking at so might have to share those photos another day for better eyes to pry over.

 

A cool association of Daldinia on birch, however. It's also fighting with Trametes versicolor. See:

Getting there! Taking its time but getting out more and looking at stuff is working. As if it wouldn't...

Pholiota squarrosa (the shaggy scalycap) here on a very dysfunctional Sorbus

Dysfunctional doesn't begin to cover it.

Think it still had seventeen leaves on it

That's fine then. Healthy tree!
