Could be, but most of the honey in my yard grow terrestrially so this being at the base of a tree makes me think jack-o-lantern

I thought honey mushrooms were parasitic on trees or otherwise lignicolous, maybe they are growing on buried wood? These look so brown compared to jacks and the gills seem to be a white or cream colour.
