Please could you help me identify these living things and point me in the direction as to where I could identify things like this on my own. I’ve been searching all over the internet but haven’t got anywhere close to an answer yet. Thanks for your help.

Fungus (possibly muscadine), jelly probably nostoc, and probably some sort of algae/lichen (would need closer photo) presumably a lot of these are near the entrance?

I found this (presumably air-calcited) insect in Odin Mine years ago. The weird object at top left is a stub of miners' candle in clay, with fingerprints in it.
