Drove by a person's yard today and there was a patch of light orange mushrooms growing in the lawn. They were dense and about ten by ten feet. Doubt they were editable or someone would have already harvested them. Any idea what they could have been? About the color of a pumpkin and the size of a tennis ball. Looked just like this picture I found. https://images.search.yahoo.com/yhs/search?p=orange+mushroom+identification&fr=yhs-pty-browser_wavebrowser&type=A1-brwsr-%7E2021-33%7E&hspart=pty&hsimp=yhs-browser_wavebrowser&imgurl=https%3A%2F%2Ffiles.shroomery.org%2Ffiles%2F08-38%2F161552517-DSC00121.jpg#id=0&iurl=https%3A%2F%2Ffiles.shroomery.org%2Ffiles%2F08-38%2F161552517-DSC00121.jpg&action=click

They do look like jack o lanterns, but I didn't think jacks normally grew in yards? Only on dead wood?

Sure don't want to eat anything that glows in the dark!

Question: Just because squirrels and deer eat a mushroom, is it safe for humans? I assume the answer is NO. The answer is no.

Did they look like these? (Spruce chanterelles found at 5000 ft in the Cascades)
My fear of moving stairs is escalating!
