The big red one is a lobster mushroom, basically its probably a russula or some other mushroom underneath all the red parasitic fungi that has infected that mushroom. The latin name is Hypomyces lactifluorum and it is great edible mushroom, it will deform the mushroom underneath it and make it edible, usually it parisitises russula or chanterelles. It should have a sort of seafood smell to it hence the name lobster as well as the color kind of resembling lobsters too.
