Chicken of the woods

Description:

Albany St (past Empire Blvd) riding my bike when some colossal chicken of the woods clusters nearly jumped out in front of my bike!! This was a bus stop too, amazing that no one sheared these off and took them home for dinner! Kinda past their prime now but imagine a few days ago. These clusters were on 2 levels and different sides of the tree. sigh...

Habitat:

on trees, apparently at bus stops too. you just never know.
