I say this because the cap it's of a pale color and this leads to florida, not as gray as ostreatus.

I would also suggest the oyster mushroom - but not pleurotus ostreatus (the common one) I think this is Pleurotus Florida.

I would say Oyster mushrooms judging by the size comparison to the "Cleavers" (Galium) growing neaar them
