In my wanderings yesterday I encountered a log covered with lovely mushrooms. They seem to be called Chicken Mushrooms.

Clear skies, Alan

Nice shot! Coincidentally, "Chicken of the Woods" is the featured photo for July in the Missouri Conservation Calendar this year. Supposedly, it does taste like chicken, although I'd like to know who was the first person brave enough to try it.

With this her solemn bird and this fair moon,
And these the gems of heaven, her starry train.
