Blushing Bracket, Daedaleopsis confragosa. Underside. On a fallen tree on Hayes Common. 21 December 2011. |
I walked round the local woods a few times around Christmas and found many fungi. Some looked rather ordinary; some looked messy; one looked like nothing I could identify, a jellified yellow cup full of grey ash. The brackets were probably the most noticeable. This one looked rather smart, at least from below.
It was on a small fallen tree in a dense patch of woodland, and there was so much of it on the tree that it was probably the reason it died. I counted about 30 brackets like this one. Here's a shot of the top surface of a few of the lower ones.
