  #1 could be Coprinus comatus (aka lawyer's wig, shaggy ink cap), I think.

  
  

  
  

  A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

  3 could be either the Scarlet or the Crimson Waxcap ... but I’m not sure ... can we see the stem and underneath? 

  
  

  Maybe @Ante30 can help?

  Good evening all.
  You done all the job before me😁👍.
  First photo almost certain very young Shaggy Ink cap (Coprinus comatus.
  Second photo very old Honey fungus.
  Third photo, Scarlet Waxcap. @Dovefromabovesolved it.
  
  Next time it will be easier to identify if you write size of mushroom and if it's possible take photo of steam and gills.

  Ooh I’m chuffed ... it’s ages since I went on a fungus foray and saw my first Scarlet Waxcaps. They are simply gorgeous 😃 
  
  Thanks @Ante30 🙏

  Scarlet waxcap is edible but highly endangered and strictly forbidden to collect. 
  I agree with you @Dovefromabove.  Beautiful mushroom.
  
  Here is one beautiful site about them.
