Spotted this awesome cluster on a walk today and grabbed a couple, fairly certain they are Pleurotus ostreatus.

I would generally agree, but 1) there may well be dead wood just under the grass and 2) these conditions may explain the atypical stem. Never fully trust ID by pic and opinions on the internet obviously but this looks very much like Pleurotus ostreatus to me. (Also because there aren't many alternative candidates in my opinion.)
