Panellus serotinus
thick, orange caps stacked on top of each other growing on a half dead oak.
temperate forest
This was my only cool spotting during a 3 hour hike at Queenston. There was a few of these growing in a grove of Oak. I've never seen anything like these before. Reminds me of something out of Avatar.

I´ll take your word for it Mies, thanks a lot.
Hi! I think it might be a weird deformation/discoloration of Panellus serotinus!
Thanks Antonio.
great cache Dan bizarre formation,congrats
No way! Food comparisons never get old, it's always interesting what something else can resemble. It does look more on the edible side.
I know my food comparisons are getting kind of old, but in the last two shots the mushrooms really resemble some nice, crackly bread.
I wonder if these are edible.
Thanks Seema.
lovely..the lower one looks like a crusted loaf of bread..
