If you look at the gill pattern and they run down the stem a bit and at the edge of the cap they break out in a branch pattern its a type of chanterelle. In the third photo I can see the gills and they definitely look like chanterelles. Also their general shape and form is typical of a chanterelle. They are one of my favorite mushrooms to forage for. If you pick one and smell it, they kind of has a sweet almost flowery smell to them.
This is really great advice! I know once summer comes around again (thinks 'dreaded winter!') I will now be on the lookout specifically for these next year.
You might be right I googled it and if they are they are actually edible https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantharellus_cinnabarinus - though I wonder if there is an 'imposter' species that looks like it. Thank you!
