Mushroom
These mushrooms were found on the ground next to a tree from which I infer they grew. They were hardened. This tree, I believe, had been previously struck by lightening.

Nice find Janine,can you tell us what was the tree ?
Hello Janine2 and Welcome to the Project Noah community!
We hope you like the website as much as we do. There are many aspects to the site and community. The best way to get started is to read the FAQs at http://www.projectnoah.org/faq where you can find all the tips, advice and "rules" of Project Noah. You, like the rest of the community, will be able to suggest IDs for species that you know (but that have not been identified), and make useful or encouraging comments on other users' spottings (and they on yours).
There are also "missions" you can join and add spottings to. See http://www.projectnoah.org/missions . A mission you should join is the http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/2165... to chose the best wild photo of 2018,only the spottings added to that mission are eligible.Note that most missions are "local". Be sure not to add a spotting to a mission that was outside of mission boundaries or theme :) Each mission has a map you may consult showing its range. We also maintain a blog archive http://blog.projectnoah.org/ where we have posted previous articles from specialists from different geographical areas and categories of spottings, as well as wildlife "adventures".
So enjoy yourself, share, communicate, learn. See you around :)
Hi Janine2, welcome to Project Noah! You may be experiencing the following security glitch. Let us know if the following helps:
EDITING PROBLEMS/CREATING SPOTTINGS/FILLING IN + TICKING BOXES
There is a known security glitch which occurs with most browsers and many platforms which, like Project Noah, use the secure services provided by Facebook and Google.These are https sites but Project Noah is not.
Check in the address bar and if it starts with https:// delete the s and press enter or F5 to refresh and the problem should go away. If it starts with www. just add http:// in front.
It usually disappears until the next security update but can also often appear if you open a spotting from an e-mail link and then try to edit it.
Not sure why none of my info saved. I know these are mushrooms which look like they hardened after falling off a tree. This tree was split although still alive and looked like it had been struck by lightening. I'm not sure of exact mushroom type so help identifying would be great.
