I am fairly sure they are. They were all growing together at the base of the same tree. I think the tan colored growths turn gray (or vice versa). You can see in the 3rd photo the tips are beginning to look gray and chalky like the first photo
Really cool spotting, Machi ... do all the photos show the same kind of fungus?
