November is certainly a good month for mushroom hunting. And one doesn't have to go very far to find plenty. I recently went to get my daily steps to a nearby park in the city I live in, phone in hand and eyes on the ground looking around. I found a lot of mushrooms in a relatively small area! Here are some photos of the ones growing on dead wood.
For identification, I used the Android app 'Mushroom Identify', which is subscription based, but has a 7-day free trial. Pretty cool to be able to identify the species based on photos only 😎.
Witches' butter
It lives as a parasite of Peniophora, a genus of crusts-forming saprophyte fungi. I really like how it grows out of the cracks in the wood.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tremella_mesenterica
Smoky bracket
This one is probably Bjerkandera adusta? The app showed me a few possibilities. Was growing on a piece of wood laid out to form a path through the park.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bjerkandera_adusta
Blushing rosette
Probably Abortiporus biennis? These ones I found are particularly rosy.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortiporus_biennis
