Came upon these shrooms just a bit ago and they certainly look like they want me to eat them but not certain what they are. They are on a (most likely) Pin Oak cutoff lying on the ground. I'm located in central western Pennsylvania. Thanks for any help!

They look like oysters to me. I would confirm it with others or in a mushroom ID book. You should always make your decision about what to eat based on your knowledge of the mushroom, not what I say.
